Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for use in recommending seeding rates for agricultural fields. An example computer-implemented method includes accessing data related to multiple agricultural fields in a region and separating the accessed data into a training set and a validation set, based on timing associated with harvest of crops of the multiple agricultural fields. The method also includes training an ensemble of models, representative of seeding rate relative to yield, based on the training set, and generating a response curve, defining a yield response to seeding rate, based on the trained ensemble of models and generating a validation curve, based on the validation set. The method further includes calculating an error between the generated response curve and the validation curve and recommending a seeding rate for a target field in the region, based on the response curve and the calculated error.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for improving crop yield in fields includes accessing data representative of predicted performance of seeds for a field and creating an experiment for the field based on the predicted performance of the seeds. The experiment includes a specific prescription to plant the seeds in the field. The method also includes transmitting the prescription to a planter and/or a harvester associated with the field and collecting, in real time, planting data for the seeds as the seeds are planted in the field and harvesting data for a crop grown in the field from the planted seeds. The method further includes validating that execution of the experiment in the field is consistent with the prescription and generating a recommendation based on a comparison of the collected harvesting data for the crop grown in the field to the predicted performance of the seeds included in the prescription.

Abstract: Embodiments generate digital plans for agricultural fields. In an embodiment, a model receives digital inputs including stress risk data, product maturity data, field location data, planting date data, and/or harvest date data. The model mathematically correlates sets of digital inputs with threshold data associated with the stress risk data. The model is used to generate stress risk prediction data for a set of product maturity and field location combinations. In a digital plan, product maturity data or planting date data or harvest date data or field location data can be adjusted based on the stress risk prediction data. A digital plan can be transmitted to a field manager computing device. An agricultural apparatus can be moved in response to a digital plan.
