A NOTE ON VICTORIAN WHEAT YIELD DISTRIBUTIONS

Timothy J. Ryan

Australian Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1974, vol. 18, issue 2, 4

Abstract: An analysis of wheat yield series from ten localities in Victoria was undertaken to investigate for independence of observations and to test for normality of the distributions. The conclusion was reached that Victorian wheat yield series are composed of random observations and form frequency distributions which display slight negative skewness. The situation may be different for other crops or for wheat in other areas.
