ABSTRACT

 In this paper, a new series of incomplete block designs with three replications has been proposed. These designs are partially variance balanced following a group divisible association scheme. The designs obtained here are with unequal block sizes and are suitable for experimentation in uneven land. Furthermore, these designs are resolvable, which enhances their application potential in regions where it may be difficult to accommodate complete replications at one place.
