Split-split-plot experiment of rice

Grain yield of three varieties of rice grown in a split-split plot arrangement with 3 reps, nitrogen level as the main plot, management practice as the sub-plot, and rice variety as the sub-sub plot.

Format

A data frame with 135 observations on the following 7 variables.

rep

block, 3 levels

nitro

nitrogen fertilizer, in kilograms/hectare

management

plot management

gen

genotype/variety of rice

yield

yield

col

column position in the field

row

row position in the field
