["The Use of Residual Maximum Likelihood
to Model Grain Quality Characteristics of
Wheat with Variety, Climatic and Nitrogen
Fertilizer Effects" (1997, Vol. 128, pp. 135-
142)] investigated means of wheat grain
crude protein content (CP) and Hagberg
falling number (HFN) surveyed in the UK.
The analysis used a variety of nitrogen
fertilizer applications (kg N/ha), temperature
(°C), and total monthly rainfall (mm). The
data shown below describe temperatures for
wheat grown at Harper Adams Agricultural
College between 1982 and 1993. The
temperatures measured in June were
obtained as follows:
14.1 13.7 12.2 12.3 14.8 14.7
16.0 13.8 12.9 12.6 14.8
Assume that the population has a normal
distribution and the standard deviation is
known to be o = 0.6.
