Rice yield in wet & dry seasons with nitrogen fertilizer treatments

Description

Rice yield in wet & dry seasons with nitrogen fertilizer treatments

Format

A data frame with 96 observations on the following 4 variables.

season

season = wet/dry

nitrogen

nitrogen fertilizer kg/ha

rep

replicate

yield

grain yield, t/ha

Details

Five nitrogen fertilizer treatments were tested in 2 seasons using 3 reps.

# Yang & Juskiw fit a quadratic model with linear and quadratic
# contrasts using non-equal intervals of nitrogen levels.
# This example below omits the tedious contrasts
