  1. Mean model adequacy and reliability over all herbicide application rates for the selective and the broad spectrum herbicide. Model adequacy is the intersection of the modeled and empirical data space divided with the observed data space. If the value is 1, all observed data points fall within the modeled area. Model reliability is the intersection divided with the modeled data space. If the value is 1, all modeled data points fall within the observed area
