1. Measurement of Systematic Errors in Crop Prediction

Precision agriculture typically attempts to answer grower questions using an increasingly more fine-grained analysis.  However, some entities, such as cooperatives, can have an interest in answers that are spatially course-grained, such as obtaining an estimate of the overall crop production within a season.  Errors in factors that most influence fine-grained predictions, such as soil quality, may have a smaller impact on overall yield forecasts since their effect is likely to average...
