Abstract

An agricultural system including an agricultural baler and a control unit. The agricultural baler includes a baler driveline; a rotatable flywheel; and a rotary input shaft connected by way of the baler driveline to the rotatable flywheel. The driveline includes one or more clutches for controllably transferring rotary drive between the input shaft and the flywheel. The control unit is configured to receive input-power-data indicative of a drive power available at the rotary input shaft; and determine a clutch-control-signal for controlling an amount of torque transferred from the input shaft to the flywheel bye the one or more clutches, based on the input-power-data.
