Open-Source Turba ML Stack for Morocco Fertilizer Advice Ships 44,096-Site Dataset

open-turba · hf · 2026-10-08

Turba releases an open-source three-layer ML stack for site-specific fertilizer recommendation in Morocco: turba-client (programmatic access to N/P₂O₅/K₂O recommendation workflows), turba-data (versioned snapshots), and turba-models (loadable ML surrogates of recommendation outputs). The dataset is built from 44,096 unique ESA WorldCereal locations, expanded to 132,017 crop-location requests across 10 regions, 66 provinces and 1,149 communes with 22 variables. Nine regression families were benchmarked under a fixed 80/20 protocol; five best crop-specific models are packaged. The task is framed as recommendation-function emulation, enabling reproducible validation, uncertainty estimation and field-trial comparison.
