Factorial experiments:
Factorial experiments involve simultaneously more than one
factor each at two or more levels.
2
Factorial experiments:
Example: Suppose the yield from different plots in an agricultural
experiment depend upon
1. (i) variety of crop and (ii) type of fertilizer.
Both the factors are in the control of experimenter.
3
Factorial experiments:
In order to compare the different crop varieties
fertilizer, etc. fixed and the same for all the plots.
‐ The conclusions for this will be valid only for the crops grown
4
5
Factorial experiments:
In order to compare different fertilizers (or different dosage of
fertilizers)
• sow single crop on all the plots and vary the quantity of
fertilizer from plot to plot.
• The conclusions will become invalid if different varieties of
crop are sown.
• It is quite possible that one variety may respond differently
than another to a particular type of fertilizer.
Factorial experiments:
Through the factorial experiments, we can study the individual
effect of each factor and interaction effect.
Now we consider a 22 factorial experiment with an example and
try to develop and understand the theory and notations through
this example.

Factorial experiments:
Factors
Levels
A general notation for representing the
factors is to use capital letters, e.g., A,B,C etc.
and
levels of a factor are represented in small letters.
7
Factorial experiments:
For example, if there are two levels of A, they are denoted as a0
and a1.
Other alternative representation to indicate the two levels of A
is 0 (for a0) and 1 (for a1).
The factors of B are then 0 (for b0) and 1 (for b1).
8
Factorial experiments:
Treatment combinations are as follows:
Treatment combinations
a0 b0 a0 b1 a1 b0 a1 b1
or 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1
or I b a ab
I denotes that both the treatments are at lower level – a0 b0 or 0 0
9
Factorial experiments:
(ab): Mean of all observations which receive the treatment
combinations ab.
Note: An important point to remember is that the factorial
experiments are conducted in a design of experiment. For
example, the factorial experiment is conducted as an RBD.
10
Factorial experiments:
For example, if there are
• two levels of A, they are denoted as a0 and a1.
Other alternative representation to indicate the two levels of A
is 0 (for a0) and 1 (for a1).
The factors of B are then 0 (for b0) and 1 (for b1).
The factors of C are then 0 (for c0) and 1 (for c1).
11
Factorial experiments:
Treatment combinations are as follows:
Treatment combinations
a0 b0 c0 a0 b0 c1 a0 b1 c0 a0 b1 c1
a1 b0 c0 a1 b0 c1 a1 b1 c0 a1 b1 c1

Factorial experiments:
Example:
Two factors: Irrigation (I) and Nitrogen (N).
Levels:
Irrigation has 2 levels: I0 and I1
Nitrogen has 3 levels: N0, N1 and N2
13
Factorial experiments:
We need two RBD
N0 N1 N2 N0 N1 N2
N2 N0 N1 N2 N0 N1
N1 N2 N0 N1 N2 N0

Factorial experiments:
Difference among I levels
Example:
Two factors: Irrigation (I) and Nitrogen (N).
Levels:
Irrigation has 2 levels: I0 and I1
Nitrogen has 2 levels: N0 and N1
