Uniformity of experimental units is difficult to achieve in typical cotton field trials. Various analytical methods have been proposed to account for such variability. Experimental designs like the lattice are useful. Experimental analytical procedures like the Nearest Neighbor Analysis and the Trend analysis also account for spatial variability. These methods were examined to determine the most accurate and all have their limitations. The best method has yet to be devised; however, if one had the time one could make plot adjustments that are more reasonable than either method mentioned. The problem is time. A new software package with a minimum intelligence code may overcome time limitations.
