Abstract
VAUIETY testing forms an essential part of the work of the plant breeder and so he needs an adequate technique for the design and statistical analysis of field trials. His requirements in this direction are, however, rather specialized, the prime necessity being a method of comparing a large number of selected lines, though the careful testing of a small number of valuable new strains against standard varieties is also of importance.
