Abstract:
This dataset contains data collected in a tomato cultivation (namely, a Solanum lycopersicum L. cv. HEINZ 1301 cultivation) located at the "Azienda Sperimentale Stuard," Parma, Italy, through an IoT infrastructure featuring Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN)-enabled commercial devices deployed in the crop during the summer 2023 period (June 29-September 13). The IoT architecture also controls the irrigation system deployed to manage the watering conditions in the tomato crop, in detail considering three different experimental lines (each one associated with a different irrigation regime): (i) line #1 was irrigated with a water quantity equal to the irrigation recommendation provided by a national cloud service, denoted as Irriframe and developed by the Water Boards Italian Association (ANBI); (ii) line #2 was irrigated with a water quantity equal to 60% of line #1; (iii) line #3 was irrigated with a water quantity equal to 30% of line #1. The dataset comprises 4 different CSV files. The first three files (named as "stuard_environmental_data.csv," "stuard_water_meter_data.csv," and "stuard_soil_data.csv") contain the information sampled every 10 minute by the IoT devices deployed in the crop-one environmental sensor, three water meters, and three soil sensors. The fourth CSV file (named as "indicators.csv") contains the values of agronomic indicators of interest, calculated daily and mainly depending on daily air temperature values: (i) the Growing Degree Days (GDD) index and (ii) the Heat Units indicators, both calculated on the collected experimental tomato crop data.

Multiple Regression
Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables. The analysis requires the construction of a scatter plot...
