This paper considers the metod of estimation of parameters and testing hypothesis for a specific class of nonlinear growth functions presented by Rash (1988; Probleme der Angewandten Statistik 24, 159-191). On the basis of the experimental data the attempt was made to apply this method to the description of the process of raspberry fruitbearing taking cumulated crop into consideration.
