Irrigation methods in an agricultural field trial

Description

In an agricultural field trial, the objective was to determine the effects of two crop varieties and four different irrigation methods. Eight fields were available, but only one type of irrigation may be applied to each field. The fields may be divided into two parts with a different variety planted in each half. The whole plot factor is the method of irrigation, which should be randomly assigned to the fields. Within each field, the variety is randomly assigned.
