Using regression and neural networks, this study models nitrate concentration in ground water as a function of iron concentration in ground water, season and distance of the well from a poultry house. Results from both techniques are comparable and show that the distance of the well from a poultry house has a significant effect on nitrate concentration in groundwater.}, url = {http://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/15825}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.22004/ag.econ.15825}, }
