Maintained by Lalit Kumar RolaniyaFirst published 2026-02-242 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

A comprehensive suite of statistical and analytical tools for agricultural research. Includes complete analysis of variance (ANOVA) functions for all experimental designs: Completely Randomized Design (CRD), Randomized Block Design (RBD), Pooled RBD, Split Plot with all variations, Split-Split Plot, Strip Plot, Latin Square, Factorial, Augmented, and Alpha Lattice, with proper error terms and comprehensive Standard Error (SE) and Critical Difference (CD) calculations. Features multiple post-hoc tests: Least Significant Difference (LSD), Duncan Multiple Range Test (DMRT), Tukey Honestly Significant Difference (HSD), Student-Newman-Keuls (SNK), Scheffe, Bonferroni, and Dunnett, along with assumption checking and publication-ready output. Advanced methods include stability analysis using Eberhart-Russell regression, Additive Main Effects and Multiplicative Interaction (AMMI), Finlay-Wilkinson regression, Shukla stability variance, Wricke ecovalence, Coefficient of Variation (CV), and Cultivar Superiority Index as described in Eberhart and Russell (1966) doi:10.2135/cropsci1966.0011183X000600010011x. Thermal indices include Growing Degree Days (GDD), Heliothermal Units (HTU), Photothermal Units (PTU), and Heat Use Efficiency (HUE). Crop growth analysis covers Crop Growth Rate (CGR), Relative Growth Rate (RGR), Net Assimilation Rate (NAR), and Leaf Area Index (LAI). Also provides harvest index, yield gap analysis, economic efficiency indices (Benefit-Cost ratio), nutrient use efficiency calculations, correlation matrix, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), path analysis, and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). Statistical methods follow Gomez and Gomez (1984, ISBN:0471870927) and Panse and Sukhatme (1985, ISBN:8170271169).

Install

R (CRAN)pak (dev)Ubuntu (r2u)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("aridagri", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

if (!requireNamespace("pak", quietly = TRUE))
  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("lalitrolaniya/aridagri")

Development version from lalitrolaniya/aridagri. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-aridagri

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-aridagri

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
