1. A method comprising:
receiving data representing a policy with which to implement one or more actions in association with one or more subsets of agricultural objects, the data representing the policy being configured to apply the one or more actions as an agricultural projectile delivery system traverses one or more paths adjacent the one or more subsets of agricultural objects;
identifying a subset of payloads to provide the one or more actions based on the data representing the policy for the one or more subsets of agricultural objects;
determining whether a payload is sufficient to implement the one or more actions; and
transmitting data representing executable instructions to implement the one or more actions.
