Abstract
In this paper statistical methodology is used to determine similar gro ups of Argentine maize varieties and to model the behaviour of the moi sture content as a function of the water activity. Different equations proposed in the literature are studied and a common mathematical mode l is obtained for all varieties whatever the adequacy criteria conside red. The use of the goodness of fit criteria is also discussed. Copyri ght (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Limited.
