Soil nitrogen

Description

The soil nitrogen after applying different fertilizer doses

Usage

data(nitrogen)

Format

A data frame containing 24 observations with the following 3 variables.

Fert

the fertilizer dose, in kilograms of nitrogen per hectare; a numeric vector

SoilN

the soil nitrogen, in kilograms of nitrogen per hectare; a numeric vector

Source

the fertilizer source: a factor with levels 0 (inorganic) and 1 (organic; farmyard manure)

Details

The data give the soil inorganic nitrogen content for various fertilizer doses, including a control. One application is from an organic source. Each level of fertilizer has data from three replications.
