In 1919 Fisher became the statistician for the Rothamsted experimental station. He worked on Plant-breeding experiments, in 1933 Fisher became Galton Professor at a university college, After this from 1943 to 1957 he was Balfour professor of genetics at Cambridge. He investigated similarity of genes for several traits and produced methods to deal with questions anyone might have. As every other biologist, he ran into some trouble when trying to conduct a experiment designed for plant-breeding that may lead his information that was discovered to become inaccurate or misleading. So he introduced the factor of randomization, in which he randomly selected samples from a population, this helps to diminished the effects of variability in experimental materials so that his information does not become misleading.
