Abstract

A method and system for evaluating crop performance obtains weather data for defined geographic locations within a geographic area. Historic soil data is obtained for the defined geographic locations within a geographic area. Historic yield data is obtained for the defined geographic area for a representative crop. Predictive data nodes are determined based on at least one of the obtained weather data, the historic soil data, and the historic yield data. Each node is associated with a certain range of average yields for a particular crop.
