Simulated split-plot experiment on cluster bean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba) with three irrigation levels in main plots and four nitrogen levels in sub-plots, in three replications.

Usage

clusterbean_spd

Format

A data frame with 36 rows and 7 variables:

rep

Factor, replication (R1-R3).

irrigation

Factor, main-plot irrigation level.

nitrogen

Factor, sub-plot nitrogen level (kg N/ha; foliar = additional 2% urea spray).

seed_yield

Seed yield (kg/ha).

water_use

Seasonal water use (mm).

wue

Water use efficiency (kg/ha per mm).

stover_yield

Stover yield (kg/ha).

Source

Simulated with data-raw/make_datasets.R (seed 2026). Not real experimental data.
