1. A method for generating a plot in a field during a crop input application operation using a variable application implement, comprising:
- displaying a geo referenced map of the field;
prompting a user to select a marker location on said displayed map corresponding to at least one geo referenced location in the field and storing said marker location in memory;
receiving data identifying a marker location corresponding to at least one geo-referenced location of the field;
initiating the crop input application operation using the variable application implement;
applying a crop input on a first portion of the field at varying application rates according to a prescription map, said prescription map associating each of a plurality of regions in the field with one of a plurality of application rates; and
implementing a plot in the field, said plot defining a plot region within the field, said plot region being selected during the crop input application operation based on said marker location.

Abstract
Systems and methods for implementing a plot in a field based on the location of a marker placed in an application prescription map prior to a crop input application operation are disclosed. The plot defines a plot region. The plot region is defined during the crop input application operation based on the marker location.
