One of the most useful, cheapest, and quickest ways of gaining access to formations for inspection and sampling is by trial pit or trench. In the simplest form, the excavations are hand dug with a spade. Deeper excavations may be made by machine.... The advantages of using trial trenches are many. The soil can be inspected in an in situ state, although some careful hand excavation of the sides of the machine excavated trench may be necessary... Bulk, block, or driven tube samples can be taken from the sides or floor of the trench.  4, record 1, English, - trial%20trench

Test trenches. Test trenches can be used to perform the same function as test pits but offer one distinct advantage, i.e., trenches provide a continuous exposure of the continuity and character of the subsurface material along a given line or section.  5, record 1, English, - trial%20trench

The best comparison of two varieties therefore comes from neighboring plots and, extending this principle, the best comparison of a set of varieties comes from compact block of small plots, within which block soil variation is likely to be minimal.  3, record 3, English, - trial%20block

Ensemble de parcelles voisines et très semblables les unes aux autres, quant aux conditions de croissance de la végétation. Ces blocs sont dits complets lorsque tous les objets mis en expérience sont présents dans chacun d'eux, le nombre de parcelles par bloc étant au moins égal au nombre d'objets.  3, record 3, French, - bloc

Le troisième principe relatif aux essais est celui du contrôle local, dont le besoin découle du modèle de variation du sol. La meilleure comparaison de deux variétés provient de deux parcelles voisines. Ce principe appliqué aux essais de variétés se traduit par l'utilisation d'un bloc compact de petites parcelles, à l'intérieur duquel la variation de sol devrait vraisemblablement être minime.  4, record 3, French, - bloc
