The varieties were grown in three randomized blocks at each of the six stations during 1931 and 1932, different land being used each year of the test. </p> <p>Immer et al. (1934) present the data for each Year*Site*Variety*Block. The data here is the average yield across the three blocks. </p> <p>Immer et al. (1934) refer (once) to the experiment as being conducted in 1930 and 1931, then later refer to it (repeatedly) as being conducted in 1931 and 1932. Later authors have continued the confusion. </p> <p>Cleveland (1993) suggests that the data for the Morris site may have had the years switched. </p> <h3>Author(s)</h3> <p>Documentation contributed by Kevin Wright. </p> <h3>Source</h3> <p>Immer, R.
