Mack and Skillings (1980) proposed a typical nonparametric method in a randomized block design with replications. However, this method may lose information because of the use of average observations instead of individual observations. In this paper, we proposed a nonparametric method that employed an aligned method suggested by Hodges and Lehmann (1962) under a randomized block design with replications. In addition, the comparative results of a Monte Carlo power study are presented.

Typical Nonparametric methods for randomized block design with replications are two methods proposed by Mack (1981) and Mack and Skillings (1980). This method is likely to cause information loss because it uses the average of repeated observations instead of each repeated observation in the processing of each block. In order to compensate for this, we proposed a test method using linear placement statistics, which is a score function applied to the joint placement method proposed by Chung and Kim (2007). Monte Carlo simulation study is adapted to compare the power with previous methods.

Mack and Skillings (1980) proposed nonparametric procedures in a randomized block design with replications as general alternatives. This method is used to find the difference in the treatment effect; however, it can cause a loss of inter block information using the ranking in each block. In this paper, we proposed new nonparametric procedures in a randomized block design with replications using an aligned method proposed by Hodges and Lehmann (1962) that used information of blocks and based on the joint placement suggest by Chung and Kim (2008). We also compared the power of the test of the proposed procedures and established a method through Monte Carlo simulation.

The method of Mack and Skillings (Technometrics, 23, 171-177, 1981) is a nonparametric multiple comparison method in a randomized block design with replications. This method is likely to result in loss of information because each block is ranked using the average of observations instead of repeated observations. In this paper, we proposed a new nonparametric multiple comparison method in the randomized block model with replications using an alignment method proposed by Hodges and Lehmann (The Annals of Mathematical Statistics, 33, 482-497, 1962) that extend the joint placement method proposed by Chung and Kim (Communications for Statistical Applications and Methods, 14, 551-560, 2007). In addition, Monte Carlo simulation compared the family wise error rate and power with the parametric method and the nonparametric method.

Mack (1981), Skilling and Wolfe (1977, 1978) proposed typical nonparametric method in randomized block design with replications. In this paper, we proposed the procedures based on placement as extension of the two sample placement tests described in Orban and Wolfe (1982) and treatment versus control tests described in Kim (1999). Also Monte Carlo simulation study is adapted to compare power of the proposed procedure with those of previous procedures.

Mack and Skillings (1980) proposed a nonparametric method in a randomized block design with replications. This method employs the mean of observations instead of each observation. However, it has the inherent disadvantage that there may be a loss of information. In this paper, we proposed a nonparametric method that employees an aligned method and linear placement statistics to supplement its weakness. A Monte-Carlo study is performed to compare the power of the proposed method with previous methods.

Kim and Kim (1992) proposed typical nonparametric method for umbrella alternative in randomized block design with replications. In this paper, We consider a test procedure for umbrella alternatives in a randomized block design using extension of the two sample placement tests described in Orban and Wolfe (1982) and treatment tests described in Kim (1999). We perform a Monte Carlo study to compare the empirical powers of the test statistics for underlying distributions.

Randomized block design (RBD) with three replication is very frequently adopted in agricultural experiments of the Rural Development Administration of Korea. Even though it works well in field trials of traditional crops, it may not accomodate trial site conditions and/or experimental environment. In this research report, we deal with two such cases. The first case is for a crop experiment in green houses. In house conditions, RBD may not be appropriate since it cannot reflect two directions of the yield gradient. So, a Latin square design is suggested as an alternative. The second case is for local field experiments of the newly-inbred rice. RBD with three replications is used without doubt for decades, even though the site layout is not appropriately shaped for the design. In this case, we suggest the RBD in two blocks with multiple replicates for control varieties as an alternative. To improve the quality of statistical experimental designs in over one-thousand agricultural trials performed annually in the Rural Development Administration, we need to re-train agricultural researchers on the design and analysis of experiments and call for concerns of Korean statisticians.

This study aimed to determine the effect of organic matter content and water condition in soil on yield, carbohydrate, and inulin contents of two varieties of Jerusalem artichoke. The plants were grown with high and low organic soil either under irrigation or no irrigation in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications. In result, the yield of Jerusalem artichoke was higher about 7 kg in soil with high organic matter than in soil with low organic matter, while it was higher about 11 kg under the irrigation than under no irrigation. The yield of white variety was higher about 9 kg than that of purple variety. Under the irrigation, a 12 kg and 9 kg of higher yields were observed in the soil with high and low organic matter content, respectively, than under no irrigation.

A field experiment was conducted in Agronomy farm at an altitude of 1350 m. above sea level in a randomized complete block design with three replications and eight treatments on vegetable type soybean in 2005. The objective was to see the effect of vermicompost alone and in combination with Rhizobium inoculum and mineral fertilizers on the yield of vegetable soybean. The result showed higher number of nodules from the non inoculated plot, however, the nodules weight was highest from the inoculated plots. No significant difference was notice statistically on roots and shoots dry weight. Soybean grain was obtained highest (32.3%) over the non inoculated plot followed by vermicompost plus inoculated, however, there was non significant difference. There was a slight increment on grain and straw yield from the inoculated plots over the non inoculated.
