Crop yield data adjustments

1. A system for generating crop yield maps with yield data from multiple harvesters to allow farmers to easily identify areas within a field of a broadacre crop that receive inapt amounts of at least one of fertilizer or water, comprising:

a first global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver coupled to a first harvester, the first GNSS receiver configured to determine positions of the first harvester;

a first yield sensor coupled to the first harvester, the first yield sensor configured to sense mass flow of a first portion of the broadacre crop harvested by the first harvester;

a radio data link; and

a display/processor in communication with the first GNSS receiver, the first yield sensor, and the radio data link, the display/processor configured to:

receive in real time a plurality of first positions of the first harvester from the first GNSS receiver, the plurality of first positions corresponding to locations of the first harvester while the first harvester is in the field harvesting the broadacre crop;

receive in real time first crop yield data from the first yield sensor, the first crop yield data obtained while the first harvester is in the field harvesting the broadacre crop;

determine a first crop yield associated with each of the plurality of first positions of the first harvester using the first crop yield data;

receive in real time, via the radio data link, a plurality of second positions of a second harvester from a second GNSS receiver coupled to the second harvester, the plurality of second positions corresponding to locations of the second harvester while the second harvester is in the field harvesting the broadacre crop;

receive in real time, via the radio data link, second crop yield data from a second yield sensor coupled to the second harvester, the second crop yield data obtained while the second harvester is in the field harvesting the broadacre crop;

determine a second crop yield associated with each of the plurality of second positions of the second harvester using the second crop yield data;

identify one or more first paths of the first harvester in the field that are immediately adjacent to one or more second paths of the second harvester in the field using the plurality of first positions of the first harvester and the plurality of second positions of the second harvester;

identify one or more first positions of the plurality of first positions that are obtained while the first harvester is moving along the one or more first paths;

identify one or more second positions of the plurality of second positions that are obtained while the second harvester is moving along the one or more second paths;

for each of the one or more first positions, identify a nearest one of the one or more second positions to create first position/second position pairs;

identify the first crop yield and the second crop yield associated with each of the first position/second position pairs;

determine a gain factor based on differences between the first crop yield and the second crop yield associated with each of the first position/second position pairs;

adjust the second crop yield associated with each of the first position/second position pairs using the gain factor;

display in real time, on a monitor display, the first crop yield and the adjusted second crop yield as a crop yield map using the plurality of first positions and the first crop yield and the plurality of second positions and the adjusted second crop yield; and

use the crop yield map to identify one or more areas within the field that receive the inapt amounts of the at least one of fertilizer or water.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first yield sensor comprises an impact plate.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first yield sensor is configured to perform optical measurements of crop volume.
