Abstract

A method for detecting interferences in a crop collecting system of an agricultural harvesting machine includes optically detecting a crop stream at the crop collection system. The method includes that the movement of an object over time in the crop stream is determined in the optically detected crop stream and, based on the determined movement of the object, an interference of the crop collection system is detected.
