rice: Effects of nitrogen fertiliser on yields of varieties of rice

Description Usage Format Source

Description

The Rice dataset contains data from an experiment that studied the effect of three levels of nitrogen fertilizer on the yields of six varieties of rice. The experiment used a strip-plot design. This is a replicated row and column design. Each replicate had three columns and six rows. Within each replicate, the nitrogen levels were randomized onto the columns, and the varieties were randomized onto the rows.The response variable is the yield of rice.
