Machine learning recommendations are often evaluated one model at a time, despite deployment across interconnected decision makers. For continuous NPK fertilizer prescriptions, correlated errors can aggregate across farms and generate systemic costs. A model of shared and farm-specific recommendation errors links expected social loss to model adoption shares; the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index characterizes concentration effects when common model errors are independent and predictive risks are equal. A covariance-generalized formulation captures the dependence between model families. A two-model threshold characterizes when privately optimal monoculture is socially dominated, and a convex portfolio rule limits average private predictive regret. Nine model families across five Moroccan cereal systems provide a benchmark-based calibration. Under illustrative parameters and a 10% regret cap, accuracy-constrained diversification lowers modeled social loss in all five systems by 10.89-41.53% (mean 19.41%). Uniform allocation reduces modeled loss in this setting, but breaches the regret cap in every crop. Correlation sensitivity shows that highly dependent model errors attenuate the benefits of diversification. These counterfactual outcomes are not estimates of agronomic or monetary welfare; the framework identifies adoption architecture and error dependence as ecosystem-level evaluation variables.
