“…In comparison to the Langmuir and Temkin models, the Freundlich model exhibited an advanced match (Figure 4) of equilibrium K adsorption for the soil of silty loam type at Srwan site, as demonstrated by the (R 2 ) values coefficient (Table 2). These findings are consistent with Kassa et al [38], who indicated that the Freundlich model performed better than the other model in describing K adsorption. This was due to qualitative changes in the mineralogy and chemistry of the fractions that were separated [39].…”

“…e low levels of exchangeable-K in many of the farming contradict with the generally held view that Ethiopia soils are rich in potassium. Several studies revealed that any activity associated with change in land use and agricultural management practices can affect soil properties and K dynamics [9][10][11][12], but the exchangeable and extractable K status of Wolaita soil K forms are unsatisfactory measures of nutrient availability since their concentration in the soil at any time is small in relation to long-term losses by crop removal and leaching and they give little indication of reserves of nonexchangeable but potentially available K. As limited research results are available on the balance of K for crop land systems in Kassa et al [13], the ability to predict yield responses to K fertilizers from K soil tests is limited and requires study; the objectives of this study were to (1) determine physical and chemical properties of the soils and (2) assess different types of K forms and dynamic in the different land uses. ([14], Figure 2).…”

“…As a result, equilibrium K appears to be a more accurate indicator of soil fertility (Bilias and Barbayiannis., 2019). To estimate the rate of additional K fertilizers in soils and create detailed K fertilizer recommendations, THERE IS a need for knowledge of the variance in K adsorption among soils and the equilibrium between the intensity and quantity phases of soil K (Kassa et al, 2019). As a result, K fertilization is crucial in meeting the K requirements of the plant cropping system.…”
