Hi,
For your question: some applications of simple random sampling with replacement in real life scenarios, Kindly see the attachment link:

Hi Jane -
I'm afraid you aren't really going to see simple random sampling with replacement in a real life scenario in just about any field, including agriculture. First, a simple random sample is only going to cover a relatively narrow category before you should stratify. Second, it is inefficient to select the same respondent multiple times, so 'with replacement' is not generally used either. And in agriculture, there is a history of some rather complex designs.
Sorry, but if it is real life that you want, it won't be simple random sampling with replacement. I cannot say that that has never been used in some very narrow application somewhere, and I might have suggested it for a very narrow problem for a small part of an electric power survey once, that I don't think we used, but it just generally is not practical.
If you are interested in designs, a relatively available, and well-written classic would be Cochran, W.G.(1977), Sampling Techniques, 3rd ed., John Wiley & Sons.
