2009 Sixth International Conference on Fuzzy Systems and Knowledge Discovery
Definition of Management Zones of Soil Nutrients Based on Spatial Analysis in Cotton Field

The variables of organic matter, available N, available P and available K data determined in 193 topsoil (0-30cm) samples were selected as data sources. Fuzzy c-means clustering algorithm was used to delineate management zones. In order to determine the optimum fuzzy control parameters, the fuzziness performance index (FPI), c-φ combinations and the multiple regression based on external variable were used in this study. Meanwhile, the cotton yield was chosen as the external variable. The whole field was divided in four management zones. And fuzziness exponent was 1.6. The zoning statistics showed that variation coefficient of soil nutrients decreased, while the means of the soil nutrients differed sharply between management zones.
Index Terms:
Spatial analysis, Soil nutrient, Fuzzy c-mean, Management zones
