• Ex. 2: (Phase 1) Creating a Second Crop Plan
• Ex. 2: (Phase 2.) Simulating the Herbicide Treatment
• Ex. 2: (Phase 3.) Execute Crop Plan
• Ex. 2: (Phase 4.) Analyze the results
• Ex. 2: (Phase 5.) Execute Both Crop Plans
• Ex. 2: (Phase 6.) Analyze the results

So far in Example 1, we developed a simple crop plan. We will take the crop plan we developed and replicate it to simulate a herbicide application.  We will project the crop plans and then examine the result of this.
