[ ] Rationale for Yield Estimate
[ ] Confidence Level (%)
[ ] Yield Trend (Compared to Historical Data) (Above Average, Average, Below Average, Significantly Above Average, Significantly Below Average)
[ ] Notes/Comments on Yield Prediction

--- VALIDATION & REFINEMENT ---
[ ] Date of Harvest/Sampling for Comparison
[ ] Actual Yield (kg/hectare or equivalent)
[ ] Predicted Yield (kg/hectare or equivalent)
[ ] Yield Error (%) - ((Actual - Predicted) / Actual * 100)
[ ] Error Category (based on error %) (Excellent, Good, Acceptable, Poor, Unacceptable)
[ ] Notes on Discrepancies Between Predicted and Actual Yield
[ ] Possible Factors Contributing to Error (Weather Events, Pest/Disease Pressure, Soil Variability, Nutrient Deficiency, Water Stress, Model Limitations, Other (Specify in Long Text))
[ ] Specific Adjustments Needed to Model or Data Collection
[ ] Upload images/data supporting validation (optional)
