a pesticide manufacturer is developing a new type of organic pesticide for a particular plant. to study the effectiveness of the new pesticide, a large sample of young plants is collected. the sample is then separated into many groups of two plants based upon age, size and soil type so that plants with similar characteristics are grouped together. one of the two plants in each group is randomly chosen and administered the pesticide, while both plants are placed in a controlled environment and are exposed to the possibility of attack from the target pests. the plants are inspected regularly over a 3 month period and the results are recorded for comparison.

According to the question, the study is based on the organic pesticide for a particular plant. The pesticide manufacturer is developing a new type of organic pesticide for the particular plants. To understand the application of a new organic pesticide, then perform one experiment where the members of plants have controlled the environment for the testing purpose. In this way, plants can be protected from pest attack. These types of experiments fall under matched pair experiments.

In the matched pair experiments, the samples are divided into two parts. The first part should be based on some controlled characteristics, whereas the other one should be based on randomly assigned characteristics.

What are matched pair experiments.?

Matched pair designs are experimental based designs. In this, one group is protected in a controlled environment whereas the other one is in a random environment.
