npk

Classical N, P, K Factorial Experiment

Description

A classical N, P, K (nitrogen, phosphate, potassium) factorial experiment on the growth of peas conducted on 6 blocks. Each half of a fractional factorial design confounding the NPK interaction was used on 3 of the plots.

Usage

npk

Format

The npk data frame has 24 rows and 5 columns:

block: which block (label 1 to 6).
N: indicator (0/1) for the application of nitrogen.
P: indicator (0/1) for the application of phosphate.
K: indicator (0/1) for the application of potassium.
yield: Yield of peas, in pounds/plot (the plots were (1/70) acre).

Note

This dataset is also contained in R 3.0.2 and later.
