National wheat yield depends on climate conditions and usually remains unknown until harvest. In-season knowledge can … be provided by wheat yield forecast systems, supporting the decision-making of farmers, food traders, or policymakers. In … this study, we improved a previously developed statistical wheat yield model to forecast trend-corrected wheat yield in …
