22-Factorial Experiment Analysis
1. An experiment was planned to study the effect of sulphate of potash and super phosphate on the yield of potatoes. All the combinations of 2 levels of super phosphate (0% and 5 % per acre) and two levels of sulphate of potash and (0% and 5 % per acre) were studied in randomized block design with 4 replications of each. The yields are obtained and given. Analyse the data and give your conclusions.
