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, the first portion of the agronomic field having received a first treatment, and second yield data, for a second portion of the agronomic field, the second portion of the agronomic field having received a second treatment that is 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, the yield value indicating 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.

Abstract: In an embodiment, digital images of agricultural fields are received at an agricultural intelligence processing system. Each digital image includes a set of pixels having pixel values, and each pixel value of a pixel includes a plurality of spectral band intensity values. Each spectral band intensity value describes a spectral band intensity of one band among several bands of electromagnetic radiation. For each of the agricultural fields, spectral band intensity values of each band are preprocessed at a field level using the digital images for that agricultural field resulting in preprocessed intensity values. The preprocessed intensity values are provided as input to a machine learning model. The model generates a predicted yield value for each field. The predicted yield value is used to update field yield maps of agricultural fields for forecasting and can be displayed via a graphical user interface (GUI) of a client computing device.
