Özet:

 

In this study, a novel soil analysis method for fertilization recommendation was developed and validated with 161 soil samples taken from Turkey - Çarşamba plain for determination of potassium as a plant nutrient. In conventional soil analysis methods, available potassium (K) nutrient was determined by ammonium acetate extraction with flame photometer. In this study an alternative to existing method was proposed by developing extraction solutions suitable for interference dynamics of ion selective electrodes in a flow injection setup. Flow injection analysis system was optimized and K ion concentration of 161 soil samples taken from Turkey – Çarşamba plain was determined with potentiometrically. For the same soil samples, K+ ion concentration was determined with ammonium acetate extraction using flame photometer in parallel. Fertilization recommendations for potassium was calibrated on ammonium acetate extraction based measurements. In order to evaluate available potassium nutrient analysis results from new generation soil analysis method in fertilization recommendation process, a correlation model is required for relating new generation method results to conventional method results. An artificial neural network based soft sensor system was developed for this task. Potentiometric K+ ion measurement of soil sample in flow injection analysis system was presented as input to soft sensor system. Soft sensor predicted available K in soil sample based on artificial neural network model which can be used in fertilizer recommendation. Prediction performance of soft sensor was validated with experimental data and fitted with high correlation coefficient (R2= 0.902). Experimental studies have shown that K determined by potentiometric measurements can be used in fertilization recommendations in Çarşamba plain by using soft sensor approach.
