question 164

True/False

TABLE 11-6
An agronomist wants to compare the crop yield of 3 varieties of chickpea seeds. She plants all 3 varieties of the seeds on each of 5 different patches of fields. She then measures the crop yield in bushels per acre. Treating this as a randomized block design, the results are presented in the table that follows.
-Referring to Table 11-6, the decision made at a 0.01 level of significance on the F test for the block effects implies that the blocking has been advantageous in reducing the experiment error.
