Statistical Design and Data Analysis of Field Experiments in CAC_Training Report_ December 1 – 12, 2014

Abstract

A training course on “Statistical Design and Data Analysis of Field Experiments in CAC” was organized by regional office of the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) in Central Asia and the Caucuses from December 1–12, 2014 at conference hall in “Le Grand Plaza” hotel Tashkent, Uzbekistan. The purpose of the course was to share with young researchers the knowledge on statistical concepts and methodologies for designing field experiments and biometrical techniques applied in agricultural research, to use the Genstat software and to provide an opportunity to active researchers to carry out statistical analysis of their data. This training was organized within the framework of the project CRP 1.1. “Dry Land System”. Twelve young researchers participated in the training course. The course was delivered through lectures using handouts, power point presentations, online resources and practical exercises on using Genstat software and BioComputering.
