Table 1.
Mean epidemic impact for epidemics seeded within a given county for the true clustered location data (T) and for an equivalent dataset with random farm locations (R) within each county; epidemic impact is also given for random farm locations but with the model reparameterized to provide a best fit to epidemics simulated on the true location data (RR)
