Digital Agroclimatic Plot in Guatemala Dry Corridor: Progress, Learning, and Innovation for Agricultural Decision-Making (Dataset)
Abstract
This database focuses on field trials conducted in the Digital Agroclimatic Plot during 2025, based on the needs identified by farmers in the area. The trials address two key management practices: fall armyworm control in maize and maize residue management in the soil. Data generated from these trials were analyzed to produce a technical report summarizing the main findings and conclusions, aimed at supporting farmers’ decision-making. The results provide practical guidance on recommended doses and products that can be applied under local production conditions to improve crop management and productivity. Methodology:1. A protocol was developed for establishing the ICTA Suprema maize crop in the digital agroclimatic plot. 2. Experimental units were defined using a randomized block design. 3. Treatments were applied to each experimental unit with four replications. 4. Dependent variables were measured in the field. 5. The trial was harvested.
