Multi-environment trial of maize, dry matter content

Usage

data("vaneeuwijk.drymatter")

Format

A data frame with 168 observations on the following 5 variables.

year

year

site

site, 4 levels

variety

variety, 6 levels

y

dry matter percent

Details

Percent dry matter is given.

Site codes are soil type classifications: SS=Southern Sand, CS=Central Sand, NS=Northern Sand, RC=River Clay.

These data are a balanced subset of the data analyzed in van Eeuwijk, Keizer, and Bakker (1995b) and Kroonenberg, Basford, and Ebskamp (1995).
