 ABSTRACT

Proper designing of an experiment is essential to ensure that the data is valid so that proper analysis of the generated data provides valid statistical inferences keeping in view comparative economic advantage. The first step in detailing the data collection protocol is to define the type and the number of experimental units to act as test unit. In this regard the data on yield of High-Density Apple viz. Gala Redlum is analysed in a RCBD set up utilizing 3 replications to investigate the number of high density plants to be taken as the test unit within the basic plots. The evaluation is carried out by taking 6, 7, 8 and 9 sets of hypothetical treatments and separately taking 1, 2 and 3 high density plants as the test unit.

Keywords: Experimental designs, Randomised complete block design, Hypothetical treatments, High-density plantations.
