Addendum 11-8-2-11-8-2-A-N - Statistical Analysis on Sampling Frame Data

Rules 2,4,5

In performing statistical comparisons for hay production when sample areas are harvested, harvest results of the randomly assigned sample areas will be compared using a t-test to ninety percent of the target or reference yield with a ninety percent confidence interval. The hypotheses should be set up as follows:

Null hypothesis: hay yield on release area >= 90% of target yield.

Alternate hypothesis: hay yield on release area < 90% of target yield.

If USDA/NRCS target yield is used as a standard, the tonnage of forage produced must be divided by 22,687.5 to convert it to sample frame weights.
