Seed Business: Process Management Guide

The problem

Seed business is a multifaceted undertake. Although most businesses suffer strong feedback effects, seed business are more markedly left with those than most others. Let us refer to a simple case description to recapitulate just how pronounced it can be, and we are talking about the success in a long term venture.

Bean: Description of Agromorphology

Introduction

Agromorphology constitutes what’s observable and that which is economic. Because agriculture has important connection to economy, this connection is at best rung everywhere though what agriculture reveres and, and when talked modestly, relies on: Crops.

Unsurprisingly, finer details that agriculture touches upon to make ends met (processes and resources involved along the Production-Consumption chain) are convoluted. We just cannot discourse enough. This post, however, tries to make a connection between the economy and botany, however through generalization and prioritization.

String tip: vectorized pattern replacement

Example case

Suppose you have a bunch of really filthy names, which makes you puke… You can go about fixing those with the help of stringi and stringr

Lets say following character vector hosts those filthy names.

filthy <- c("Grains %", "Moisture (gm/kg)", "Plant height (cm)", "White   spaces", "White space  (filth%)")
filthy
## [1] "Grains %"              "Moisture (gm/kg)"      "Plant height (cm)"    
## [4] "White   spaces"        "White space  (filth%)"

Now to get rid of the filth use string manipulation.

String tip: complex pattern recognition

Background

This post is all about examples and use cases. So…Let’s break a leg.

  1. Extract all words except last one using anchors and look arounds
nasty_char <- c("I love playing wildly") # remove the last word "wildly"

stringr::str_extract(nasty_char, ".*(?=\\s[:alpha:]*$)")
## [1] "I love playing"

Variance component based parameter estimation of incomplete block designs

Introduction

Variance component models are also suited for analysis of incomplete block designs, besides complete block designs. This post aims to demonstrate exactly that. Using a dataset generated from alpha lattice design, I show how the design can be properly modeled and fit using OLS regression having various fixed model components. This system of model fitting is analogous to classical ANOVA based technique of estimating parameters.
