Risk-adjusted hybrid seed selection and crop yield optimization by field

Abstract

Techniques are provided for receiving a first set of historical agricultural data and a second set of historical agricultural data; generating a plurality of projected target yield ranges using the first set and the second set of historical agricultural data by generating a historic yield distribution; generating one or more yield ranking scores for one or more fields of a grower using the first set of historical agricultural data, and assigning a projected target yield range of the plurality of projected target yield ranges to each of the one or more fields based on the one or more yield ranking scores to generate assigned projected target yield ranges; receiving a third set of historical agricultural data comprising seed optimization data, and generating a recommended change in seed population or a recommended change in seed density; causing displaying the yield improvement recommendation for each of the one or more fields.
