TLDR
Overall, 73% of the variation in the concentration of DON was explained by using weather from all three critical periods around heading, and Concentrations of DON <2.0 μg g-1 were predicted best; in fact, concentrations of DON of <1.0 IU were predicted correctly on over 89%" of the fields used to train the model.
