8.1.13 WP GO Tutorial An article in the Journal of Agricultural
Science ["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 United Kingdom.
The analysis used a variety of nitrogen fertilizer applications (kg
N/ha), temperature (°C), and total monthly rainfall (mm). The
following data below describe temperatures for wheat grown at
Harper Adams Agricultural College between 1982 and 1993. The
temperatures measured in June were obtained as follows:
