- Intervention effect Tactical nitrogen or cultivar maturity management reduced modeled loss risk by up to 35%.
- Method / resource The SOI phase forecasting system gave the greatest management value.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that current seasonal forecasting skill justifies tactical crop management.
