| contents | The project Agriculture 4.0 without chemical synthetical plant protection (NOcsPS) tests a number of cropping systems that avoid the use of chemical synthetical pesticides while at the same time using mineral fertilizers. The experiment started in 2020 (sowing fall 2019). In 2024 (sowing fall 2023), some of the cropping systems were modified. Analysis of this experiment may be done using linear mixed models. In order to include the data from 2020-2023 in joint analyses with the data collected for the modified systems from 2024 onwards, the mixed modelling approach needs to be reconsidered. In this paper, we develop models for this purpose. A key feature is the use of network meta-analytic concepts that allow a combination of direct and indirect comparisons among systems from the different years. The approach is first illustrated using a toy example. This is followed by detailed analyses of data from two the two trials sites Dahnsdorf and Hohenheim. |
