ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for determining management zones in a field for precision farming. The method and apparatus use a self-organizing network, such as a Kohonen neural network, to perform the classification of site-specific farming data into management zones in a farm field. The self-organizing network is configured to learn the proper classifications through a learning or training process.
