Abstract
An agricultural vehicle is provided herein that includes a chassis operably coupled with a powertrain control system. A boom assembly is operably coupled with the chassis. One or more nozzles is positioned along the boom assembly. A flow control assembly is configured to selectively dispense an agricultural product from a tank through the one or more nozzles. A controller is operably coupled with the powertrain control system and the boom assembly. The controller includes a processor and associated memory with the memory storing instructions that, when implemented by the processor, configure the controller to receive instructions to accelerate or decelerate the vehicle and alter a flow rate of the agricultural product through actuation of the flow control assembly in response to receiving instructions to accelerate or decelerate the vehicle.
