39.48, -82.98
From what I gather, management zones are based on yield. Soil maps, EC, topo maps, etc. -- all are proxies for yield.

I think yield variability also comes into play. Two areas in a field may have the same long-term average, for example. But one area might be very consistent, while the other (a low spot) might shine in a dry year and drown out in a wet year.

So, getting to the basics, what other attributes besides yield average and yield variability? Irrigated versus dryland, obviously. What else?
