1. A computer-assisted method of selecting seed products for planting by a crop producer associated with a field, each of the seed products having a genotype, the method comprising:
- dividing the field into a plurality of regions;
providing an environmental profile for each of the regions;
determining a recommendation of a seed product for each of the regions based on the environmental profile and performance of the genotype of each of the seed products in the environmental profile of the regions;
providing an output comprising identification of the seed product to plant within each of the regions.

Abstract
Methods and software for selecting seed products or other agricultural inputs for planting within an associated land base include dividing the field into regions, providing an environmental profile for each of regions, determining a recommendation of a seed product to plant within each of the regions based on the environmental profile and performance of the genotype of each of the seed products in the environmental profile of the regions, and providing an output identifying the seed product to plant within each of the regions.

36. A method to assist in classifying agricultural inputs, the method comprising:
-
collecting crop production information from a plurality of crop producers wherein the crop production information comprises type of seed product, environmental profile information, and performance information;
storing the crop production information in a data base;
determining a set of environmental classifications to describe the agricultural inputs at least partially based upon the environmental profile information and performance information. - View Dependent Claims (37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61)

62. A method for making a recommendation for a seed product to plant within a land base, the method comprising:
-
collecting crop production information from a plurality of crop producers over a plurality of geographically diverse locations;
determining environmental classifications using the crop production information;
classifying the land base with at least one environmental classification;
determining the recommendation for a seed product to plant within the land base based on the at least one environmental classification. - View Dependent Claims (63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69)
