obtain a metering roller identifier, that uniquely identities the metering roller, based on the wireless communication signal;

detect a machine operation associated with the metering roller and to generate component performance data correlated to the metering roller based on the machine operation; and

generate a control signal that controls the agricultural machine based on the component performance data.

2. The agricultural machine of claim 1 , wherein the wireless communication system comprises a radio frequency identification (RFID) reader that receives a radio signal from an RFID tag on the metering roller.

3. The agricultural machine of claim 1 , and further comprising:

target operation logic configured to identify a target machine operation based on the component performance data, wherein the control signal controls the agricultural machine to perform the target machine operation.

4. The agricultural machine of claim 3 , wherein the target machine operation comprises at least one of a target speed or a target position of the metering roller.

5. The agricultural machine of claim 1 , wherein the control signal controls the agricultural machine to store, in a data store, historical performance data associated with the metering roller.

6. The agricultural machine of claim 5 , wherein the data store is on the metering roller.

7. The agricultural machine of claim 1 , and further comprising wear detection logic configured to generate a wear indication metric indicative of wear of the metering roller.

8. The agricultural machine of claim 7 , wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the agricultural machine to:

detect a change in the wireless communication signal from the transmitter:

determine that the detected change indicates physical damage to the transmitter; and

generate the wear indication metric based on the determination.

9. The agricultural machine of claim 7 , wherein the wear indication metric is generated based on historical performance data associated with the metering roller.

10. The agricultural machine of claim 1 , and further comprising verification logic configured to verify the metering roller and to control operation of the agricultural machine based on the verification.

11. A method performed by a mobile work machine, the method comprising:

identifying a target machine operation based on the component data; and

controlling the mobile work machine to perform the target machine operation.

14. The method of claim 11 , and further comprising generating a wear indication metric indicative of wear of the identified machine component.

15. The method of claim 14 , and further comprising:

detecting a chance in the wireless communication signal from the transmitter;

determining that the detected chance indicates physical damage to the transmitter; and

generating the wear indication metric based on the determination.

16. A mobile work machine comprising:

a wireless communication receiver configured to receive a wireless communication signal from a transmitter corresponding to a machine component on the mobile work machine;

at least one processor; and

memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, wherein the

instructions, when executed, cause the mobile work machine to:

machine component identification logic configured to obtain a machine component identifier, that uniquely identifies the machine component, based on the wireless communication signal;

operation detection logic configured to detect a machine operation associated with the machine component;

wear detection logic configured to:

detect a change in the wireless communication signal from the transmitter:

determine that the detected chance indicates physical damage to the transmitter;

generate a wear indication indicative of wear of the machine component based on the determination; and

control signal generator logic configured to generate a control signal that controls the mobile work machine used on the wear indication.
