Project Description:

Essentially I am looking at a study of a group of 34 farms--17 type A farms and 17 type B farms. Using one measure, 6 of the 17 type A farms and 8 of 17 type B farms are found to have a certain attribute and using a different measure, 8 of 17 type A farms and 11 of 17 type B farms have that attribute. I want to know if type B farms are statistically significantly more likely to have that attribute. I need a P value and a description of how you arrived at it (and why the test you used was the correct one). The only reason I added "translation" as a suggested skill is that the study is in German and so if someone just happened to be able to read german they may be able to help tease things out further, but this is by no means necessary. Basically I'm hoping everything you need is in what I've already laid out, though of course I'm certainly available to answer any questions if moore specifics are needed. We would like to get this answered in the next few days if possible.

Skills required:

Mathematics, Statistics, Translation
