A system is provided that automatically stops a tractor (7) as a function of a status of a round baler (5). This may include a controller such as a baler controller (67) directly or indirectly detecting initial movement of an actuator (61) that moves a wrapper assembly (41). Based on this detection, conditions for starting a wrap procedure may be determined either by actuator position or by a time period required for moving the wrapper assembly (41) from a home position to a wrap start position. A time period required to bring the tractor (7) to stop may be determined and compared with the time period required for the wrapper assembly (41) to move from the home position to the wrap start position. The baler controller (67) may send a tractor halt command signal for stopping the tractor (7) to coordinate and synchronize bringing the tractor (7) to a complete stop at the same time that the wrapping material (43) is inserted and applied onto the bale (37)at the beginning of a wrapping procedure.
