    Uploaded by

    akeibo
    This document presents yield data from crops grown in a 5-bed unit experimental plot. It includes the crop, bed area, actual biomass, edible, and seed yields. The yields are also expressed as indices comparing the actual to intermediate yields benchmarks. The total biomass was 23.13 lbs and calories produced per bed was 9,629, below the design goals of 31,076 calories and 27.86 lbs of biomass.
