Sample Size Requirements for Assessing Statistical Moments of Simulated Crop Yield Distributions

Sample Size Requirements for Assessing Statistical Moments of Simulated Crop Yield Distributions

Mechanistic crop growth models are becoming increasingly important in agricultural research and are extensively used in climate change impact assessments. In such studies, statistics of crop yields are usually evaluated without the explicit consideration of sample size requirements. The purpose of t...
