1. A system comprising:
a memory; and
at least one processor to:
receive, from a database, data representing agronomic responses based on randomized replicated treatments conducted in test plots of agronomic environments;
aggregate the data representing the agronomic responses into subsets of the data representing the agronomic responses, each subset of the data representing the agronomic responses associated with one of a number of performance zones;
receive characteristics associated with a portion of a field and determine that the portion of the field represents a particular performance zone of the number of performance zones based on the characteristics associated with the portion of the field;
recommend a particularized treatment level for a crop located in the portion of the field based on the particular performance zone; and
communicate the particularized treatment level to a machine, the particularized treatment level to be applied to the portion of the field by the machine to optimize an agronomic response based on the particular performance zone.
