The employment of SQC methodologies is frequently employed for monitoring and identification of process irregularities across various fields. This research proposes and implements a novel SQC methodology in agricultural areas. A control chart is one of the SQC tools that facilitates real-time monitoring of multiple activities, including agricultural yield, industrial yield, and hospital outcomes. Advanced control charts with symmetrical data are being subjected to the new SQC method, which is suitable for this purpose. This research aims to develop a novel hybrid exponentially weighted moving average control chart for detecting the coefficient of variation (CV) using a repetitive sampling method called the HEWMARS-CV control chart. It is an effective tool for monitoring the mean and variance of a process simultaneously. The HEWMARS-CV control chart used the repetitive sampling scheme to generate two pairs of control limits to enhance the performance of the control chart. The proposed control chart is compared with the classical HEWMA and Shewhart control charts regarding the average run length (ARL) when the data has a normal distribution. The Monte Carlo simulation method is utilized to approximate the ARL values of the proposed control charts to determine their performance. The proposed control chart detects small shifts in CV values more effectively than the existing control chart. An illustrative application related to monitor the wheat yield at Rothamsted Experimental Station in Great Britain is also incorporated to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed control chart. The efficiency of the proposed HEWMARS-CV control chart on the real data shows that the proposed control chart can detect a shift in the CV of the process, and it is superior to the existing control chart in terms of the average run length.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/sym15050999","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,28]],"date-time":"2023-04-28T10:51:52Z","timestamp":1682679112000},"page":"999","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["A New Hybrid Exponentially Weighted Moving Average Control Chart with Repetitive Sampling for Monitoring the Coefficient of Variation"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3438-4789","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kanita","family":"Petcharat","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Applied Statistics Department, King Mongkut\u2019s University of Technology North Bangkok, Bangkok 10800, Thailand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Suvimol","family":"Phanyaem","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Applied Statistics Department, King Mongkut\u2019s University of Technology North Bangkok, Bangkok 10800, Thailand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5103-9867","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yupaporn","family":"Areepong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Applied Statistics Department, King Mongkut\u2019s University of Technology North Bangkok, Bangkok 10800, Thailand"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"151","DOI":"10.1080\/00224065.2007.11917682","article-title":"A Control chart for the coefficient of variation","volume":"39","author":"Kang","year":"2007","journal-title":"J.
