Cost Effective Two Level Factorial Run Orders for Agricultural Experimentation

Abstract

Sustainable agriculture systems over the long term satisfies human food, enhances environmental quality, sustain the economic viability of farm operations and thus enhance the quality of life for farmers and society as a whole. Agricultural experimentations over the years are the backbone of sustainable developments and the importance of agricultural experiments are still increasing day by day as the observable phenomena is affected by a combination of several factors. Here factorial experiments plays a crucial role. In the present article, the concept of factorial run order where randomization of the experiment is difficult due to the presence of costly factors in the experiment has been discussed. These factorial run orders can be effective in reducing the cost of the experiments when the experiments involved costly factors
