Test plots
Could this refer to test plots? i.e. when testing pesticides certain plots are sprayed and others (test plots) are not.
I found this:
שעור הנגיעות בפירות שלא רוסס כלל (היקש) היה בשיעור עד 25% שהוא שעור גבוה ונזק פוטנציאלי רב ליבול תמרים
from:
http://www.plants.org.il/plants/www/allfiles/TamarMop10.pdf
And the link shows how "test plots" seems to correlate to the description. "Analogy" plots just doesn't have the same resonance in English :)
I'm not as sure on this question, used up all my remaining brain cells on the last question, but this would be my guess.

| Yes, it seems to do with test plots... thank those brain cells of yours for me :-) |

Both your suggestion are good and I used this one."

Control plots
Hello again!
I was having tip of the tongue phenomenon with this one, I think "control plots" might be another possibility. (for the untreated plots) as these are the ones which form a baseline for comparison with the pesticide treated plots.
"A control plot serves as a baseline to compare other treatments"
I think either choice is possible though.
