Question

An experiment was planned to study the effect of Sulphate, Potash and Super Phosphate on the yield of potatoes. All the combinations of 2 levels of Super Phosphate [0 cen $\left ( P0 \right )$ and 5 cent $\left ( P1 \right )$ $\left ( P1 \right )/$ acre] and two levels of Sulphate and Potash [0 cen $\left ( K0 \right )$ and 5 cent $\left ( K0 \right )/$ acre] were studied in a randomised block design with 4 replications each. The (1/70) yields [lb per plot = (1/70) acre] obtained are given in table below:

To analyze the given data, let's break the process into a few steps for clarity: ### 1. Understanding the Data Setup - Factors: - Super Phosphate (P) has two levels: $ P_0 $ and $ P_1 $ (0 and 5 cent/acre). - Sulphate (K) also has two levels: $ K_0 $ and $ K_1 $ (0 and 5 cent/acre). - Potash (P) has two levels: $ P_0 $ and $ P_1 $ (0 and 5 cent/acre). - Design: - The experiment is conducted using a Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 4 replications. - The yields of potatoes are measured in pounds per plot, given for each combination of factors. ### 2. Data Table | Block | $ P_0 K_0 $ | $ P_0 K_1 $ | $ P_1 K_0 $ | $ P_1 K_1 $ | |-------|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| | I | 23 | 25 | 22 | 38 | | II| 40 | 26 | 36 | 38 | | III| 29 | 20 | 30 | 20 | | IV| 34 | 31 | 24 | 28 | ### 3. Model Setup and Hypothesis The general linear model for a Randomized Block Design (RBD) can be written as: \[ Y_{ijk} = \mu + B_i + P_j + K_k + (P \times K)_{jk} + \epsilon_{ijk} \] Where: - $ Y_{ijk} $ = Yield for block $ i $, and factor levels $ j $ and $ k $, - \( \mu _______ _____ ______ ____ _______ _____ _____.
