It is a common practice to analyze the data from agricultural experiments using randomized block design where each block has homogeneous experimental units (plots). However, many times, during the period of study, due to unavoidable circumstances such as natural calamities, say floods, for example, plots are no longer homogeneous. Thus, it is desirable to consider the plot effects also in the model. An appropriate model and an example of the analysis of data with plot effects is provided here.
