description: This research investigates the relative efficiency between Neutrosophic Latin Square Design (NLSD) and Classical Latin Square Design (CLSD), with a particular focus on their use in situations where data is uncertain and ambiguous. Although CLSD is a classic experiment designed for systematic error control, its utility is limited in fields like agriculture and behavioral sciences due to its performance bottleneck regarding data imprecision. The NLSD can relatively easily be extended to incorporate neutrosophic logic to address these challenges, making it a more powerful tool for modeling uncertainty. In this paper, a systematic efficiency evaluation of NLSD against CLSD is performed for inconsistent data. It is found that the NLSD enables significant improvements in experimental efficiency while providing clearer inferences regarding treatment effects and supporting more reliable conclusions. Despite these limitations, these benefits establish NLSD as a promising candidate for overcoming environmental uncertainties, and these observations hold significant potential to further the advancement of experimental designs. The results demonstrate that NLSD conveys a 55 % chance to enhance efficiency relative to LSD, which is especially important in processes that must attain maximum resource utilization and high experimental efficiency. 2025, Ayandegan Institute of Higher Education.
