  • Lowenberg-DeBoer, James

Abstract

The role of Extension in assisting farmers conducting on-farm trials with yield monitors was assessed by direct casual observation and a formal interview during a three-year case study. Results indicate that Extension has a role in assisting farmers when selecting treatments to test, designing experiments, and interpreting statistical results.
