ANALYZE THE
DATA.
The statistical techniques that
you will use to analyze your data
depend on the research design
you have used. You can learn to
do your own data analysis, either
by hand or with a statistical
software program. In most
situations, you will also want
to consult with your technical
advisor or extension personnel
for guidance with your data analysis.
INTERPRET THE
DATA AND DRAW
CONCLUSIONS.
Now that you have analyzed
the data from your on-farm
research, what do the results
tell you? What can you infer
from the data, and how can you
apply that information to your
farm? The statistical analysis
you use will indicate whether
or not there is a "significant"
difference in the treatments, practices or
varieties you are comparing. If there is a
difference, and you feel confident about
the results, you may decide to begin
making changes in your farming
practices.
