Environmental management zone modeling and analysis
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing device, first information associated with an environmental management zone, wherein the first information relates to one or more of a land characteristic and a management practice, and wherein the first information comprises a soil type of the environmental management zone;
receiving, by the computing device, historical weather data relating to the environmental management zone;
receiving, by the computing device, real-time weather data relating to the environmental management zone; and
executing a growth model to predict a nitrogen range for the environmental management zone based on one or more of the first information, the historical weather data, and the real-time weather data, wherein the nitrogen range comprises probabilities of nitrogen levels for one or more of a current time period and a future time period in a growing season and the growth model is used to calculate an optimum point of a nitrogen response curve, and applying nitrogen to the environmental management zone based on the probabilities of nitrogen levels and the optimum point of a nitrogen response curve, in each case, as determined by the growth model.

Abstract
Methods and systems for crop management are disclosed. An example method can comprise receiving first information associated with an environmental management zone. The first information can relate to one or more of a land characteristic and a management practice. The first information can comprise a soil type of the environmental management zone. An example method can comprise, receiving historical weather data relating to the environmental management zone. An example method can comprise receiving real-time weather data relating to the environmental management zone. An example method can comprise executing a growth model to predict a nitrogen range for the environmental management zone based on one or more of the first information, the historical weather data, and the real-time weather data. The nitrogen range can comprise probabilities for one or more of a current time period and a future time period in the growing season.
