Precision agriculture for on-farm research: Within-field yield stability zone management & remote sensing
Commercial dairy and cash grain farms share yield data with the NMSP team to build multi-year, farm-specific Yield Stability Zone maps that separate consistent high-performing areas from variable or low-yielding ones. These maps support on-farm research to identify yield constraints and guide targeted input and management decisions. We are also evaluating remote sensing to estimate yield and generate zone maps. Together, these tools optimize fertility rates, improving profitability and environmental efficiency. Learn more: yield prediction, yield data processing, yield stability zones.
