Abstract:
Methods, systems, and computer program products for customizing agricultural practices to maximize crop yield are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes obtaining data pertaining to (i) a geographical area comprising a plurality of regions and (ii) one or more agricultural practices applied to the geographical area; assigning each of the plurality of regions to a respective cluster of a set clusters, based at least in part on comparing features identified in the data, wherein similar ones of said regions are assigned to the same cluster; generating instructions that are specific to a given cluster in the set, wherein the instructions relate to agricultural tasks to be performed on the regions assigned to the given cluster; and triggering, based on said instructions, one or more automated farming processing devices, thereby carrying out at least a portion of said agricultural tasks.
