Abstract
A work vehicle a computing system configured to receive first and second input associated with controlling the operation of the first and second hydraulic load, respectively. Furthermore, the computing system is configured to control the operation of a first or second flow control valve corresponding to the one of the first or second hydraulic loads associated with the greater hydraulic fluid pressure such that the corresponding adjustable orifice is at a maximum flow position. Additionally, the computing system is configured to determine the first and second pressures of the hydraulic fluid being supplied to the first or second hydraulic loads. Moreover, the computing system is configured to control the operation of the first or second flow control valve corresponding to another of the first or second hydraulic loads based on the corresponding received first or second input and the determined first and second pressures.
