Abstract: An example computer-implemented method includes receiving agricultural data records comprising a first set of yield properties for a first set of seeds grown in a first set of environments, and receiving genetic feature data related to a second set of seeds. The method further includes generating a second set of yield properties for the second set of seeds associated with a second set of environments by applying a model using the genetic feature data and the agricultural data records. In addition, the method includes determining predicted yield performance for a third set of seeds associated with one or more target environments by applying the second set of yield properties, and generating seed recommendations for the one or more target environments based on the predicted yield performance for the third set of seeds. In the present example, the method also includes causing display of the seed recommendations.

Abstract: Systems and methods for utilizing a spatial statistical model to maximize efficacy in performing trials on agronomic fields are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a system receives first yield data for a first portion of an agronomic field having received a first treatment, and second yield data for a second portion of the agronomic field having received a second treatment different than the first treatment. The system uses a spatial statistical model and the first yield data to compute a yield value for the second portion of the agronomic field, where the yield value indicates an agronomic yield for the second portion of the agronomic field if the second portion of the agronomic field had received the first treatment instead of the second treatment. Based on the computed yield value and the second yield data, the system selects the second treatment and generates a prescription map including the second treatment.
