Abstract
A spatial-temporal model is postulated, possibly allowing for spatial units of irregular shapes. An estimation procedure that imbeds the Cochranne-Orcutt procedure into the backfitting algorithm is proposed. Using agricultural data, the method yields superior forecast to some common approaches.
