They datasource was provided by
Syngenta which composed of different
varieties of Syngenta corn seeds. Also,
one of the features they used for training
is crop genotype, which means these are
data that are exclusive to Syngenta. This
means that the developed model is
expected to generalize on Syngenta
brands and not on other brands.
Drawbacks
Drawbacks
They did not specify the performances of
the other models such as the Lasso, RF,

these types of models are very hard and
time consuming to setup.
