Question

An experimental farm performs research on a wide range of crops in a country. Yields of wheat can be affected by Fusarium, a fungus. Antifungal agents can be researched by measuring their impact on wheat yield in bushels per acre. A trial of five different antifungal agents could be conducted on four blocks of land, with each divided into five plots, and one randomly assigned for each agent. Sample results are given the accompanying table. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. Click the icon to view the wheat yield results. Ho: The mean crop yield is the same for all agents HA The mean crop yield is different for at least one agent. The test statistic is 4.61 (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The P-value is 0.017 Round to three decimal places as needed.) Compare the results. The effect of the blocks is not significant, and the effect of the agent is significant Based on these results, a one way ANOVA for just the fungal agent should be performed Perform the one way ANOVA State the null and alternative hypotheses. Ho: The mean crop yield is the same for all agents. HA: The mean crop yield is different for at least one agent The test statistic is 3.53 (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The P-value is 0.032 Round to three decimal places as needed.) State the conclusion There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean crop yield is different for at least one agent. c) Write a three-sentence report on your analysis for the experimental farm The wheat yield using the 5 antifungal agents is not significantly influenced by the block used for the trial. There is not a significant difference in wheat yield using the 5 antifungal agents. Further testing would not be necessary to determine the best agent silng ne nfinga aget snuenes fr

Explanation / Answer

Since based on your above question, Part (c) is not correct.

Above from anova results

The wheat yield using the 5 antifungal agents IS significantly influenced by the blocks used for the trial. There isa significant difference in wheat yield using the 5 antifungal agents. Further testing would be necessary to determine best antifungal agent.
