The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the curvature of said sensor arm extends substantially continuously over said operating portion thereof. 3. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein said sensor arm includes a forward curved portion extending from a location adjacent said shaft rearwardly to a transition region and having a first radius of curvature, and a second curved portion rearward of said first curved portion and extending from said transition region to a location adjacent the rear end of said operational region of said sensor shaft and having a second radius of curvature. 4. The apparatus of claim 3 characterized in that said first radius of curvature is less than said second radius of curvature. 5. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said curved operating portion of said sensor arm comprises a plurality of discrete curved portions extending adjacent one another over substantially the entire operating portion of said sensor arm. 6. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein the curvature of said sensor arm is such that an angular displacement of said shaft increases for a given height of ground rise as the operating height of said platform decreases. 7. In an agricultural machine having a platform carried by the machine, and a control system for setting an operating height of said platform relative to the ground, said control system including a sensor mechanism comprising a member rotatable about an axis, a sensor arm mounted to said rotatable member and including an operating portion for contacting the ground, characterized in that a forward segment of said operating portion is substantially continuously curved whereby when said platform is set at a lower operating height, the distance between said rotatable member and the point at which said arm contacts the ground continuously decreases as the operating height of said platform is decreased. 8. The apparatus of claim 7 wherein said curved portion of said sensor arm comprises a first curved portion having a substantially constant first radius of curvature, and said sensor arm includes a second curved segment rearward of said first curved segment and characterized in having a second radius of curvature, said second radius of curvature being greater than said first radius of curvature, whereby the magnitude of response of said control system is greater for lower operating heights of said platform than is the response magnitude for higher operating heights of said platform. 9. The apparatus of claim 7 wherein said sensor arm has a curvature of said operating portion thereof which is such that an angular displacement of said shaft increases for a given height of ground rise as the operating height of said platform decreases.
