Usage

data("hernandezdavila.potato.uniformity")

Format

A data frame with 1008 observations on the following 4 variables.

row

row ordinate

col

column ordinate

yield

yield, kg per plot

expt

experiment

Details

Lat 14 deg 37 min 58 sec, Long 90 deg 48 min 10 sec.

Expt 1 is for potato genotype "Loman". Page 45. Expt 2 is for potato genotype "Atzimba". Page 46.

Both experimental fields are the same size.

Field width: 12 plots * 0.9m = 10.8 m

Field length: 42 plots * 0.9m = 37.8 m

Data was OCR converted to csv. Page 45=46.
