Abstract

A planting implement (10) includes a frame (12) having at least one section (18, 20) supporting row units (14) for applying a product to rows in a field. Each section (18, 20) includes a product delivery apparatus (16) having a target delivery rate controlled by a section application signal and at least one product channel (30) for delivering an amount of the product to each row unit (14). A sectional rate control unit (100) includes a product sensor (276) coupled to each section (18, 20) and product channel (30). Sensors (276) generate product rate signals representing the amount of the product delivered to row units (14). A processor circuit monitors the product rate signal from product sensors (276), calculates product rate data therefrom, generates a display signal for a cab display (200) to generate an image representing product rate data for each product in each section (18, 20), and generates the section application control signals for each delivery apparatus (16).
