Patent attributes
In one aspect, a calibration method for a multi-variety seed meter may include terminating a supply of seeds to a seed meter and subsequently operating the seed meter to discharge seeds therefrom. Additionally, upon terminating the supply of seeds to the seed meter, the method may include monitoring a parameter indicative of an amount of seeds remaining within the seed pool based on data received from a first sensor. The method may also include monitoring an operation of the seed meter based on data received from a second sensor to identify the occurrence of a starvation event for the seed meter and determining a target value for the monitored parameter based at least in part on a starvation interval defined between the termination of the supply of seeds to the seed meter and the occurrence of the starvation event.
