block

block

row

row position

col

column position

trt

treatment code

n

nitrogen treatment, 3 levels 0, 1, 2

p

phosphorous treatment, 3 levels 0, 1, 2

k

potassium treatment, 3 levels 0, 1, 2

b

bagasse treatment, 3 levels 0, 1, 2

m

filter press mud treatment, 3 levels 0, 1, 2

Details

An experiment grown in 1949 at the Worthy Park Estate in Jamaica.

There were 5 treatment factors:

3 Nitrogen levels: 0, 3, 6 hundred-weight per acre.

3 Phosphorous levels: 0, 4, 8 hundred-weight per acre.

3 Potassium (muriate of potash) levels: 0, 1, 2 hundred-weight per acre.

3 Bagasse (applied pre-plant) levels: 0, 20, 40 tons per acre.

3 Filter press mud (applied pre-plant) levels: 0, 10, 20 tons per acre.

Each plot was 18 yards long by 6 yards (3 rows) wide. Plots were arranged in nine columns of nine, a 2-yard space separating plots along the rows and two guard rows separating plots across the rows.

Field width: 6 yards * 9 plots + 4 yards * 8 gaps = 86 yards

Field length: 18 yards * 9 plots + 2 yards * 8 gaps = 178 yards

## Not run: 

library(agridat)
data(chinloy.fractionalfactorial)
dat <- chinloy.fractionalfactorial

# Treatments are coded with levels 0,1,2. Make sure they are factors
dat <- transform(dat,
                 n=factor(n), p=factor(p), k=factor(k), b=factor(b), m=factor(m))

# Experiment layout
libs(desplot)
desplot(dat, yield ~ col*row,
        out1=block, text=trt, shorten="no", cex=0.6,
        aspect=178/86,
        main="chinloy.fractionalfactorial")

# Main effect and some two-way interactions. These match Chinloy table 6.
# Not sure how to code terms like p^2k=b^2m
m1 <- aov(yield ~ block + n + p + k + b + m + n:p + n:k + n:b + n:m, dat)
