How can I import shape file (Yield data points) and display the map? My Matlab here does not recognise this file type. Do I have to install the mapping toolbox first?

Yes, you need Mapping Toolbox installed.
Then you can use shaperead() to read a shapefile. and then use geoshow() to visualize it.
If you just want to show it, and no further processing, you can directly use geoshow().
