Calculate the Main Effect (ME) and the Total Effect (TE) of a series of factors on crop yield variability.
ME explains the share of the components to crop yield variability without interactions, i.e. if ME=1, the assessed factors explain the entire proportion of crop yield variability, but if M<1, residuals exist which means additional factors are required to explain this variability. TE represents the interaction of a given factor with other factors, i.e. high TE values for a given factor denote high interactions of that factor with other factors, therefore, TE does not include residuals.
