Researchers have developed a machine learning approach using Near-Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy to quantify carbon and nitrogen content in Inceptisol and Oxisol soil types. The study evaluated various preprocessing techniques, with the Savitzky-Golay filter and a robust outlier removal method proving most effective. Ensemble learning models, including Partial Least Squares (PLS), Support Vector Regression (SVR), and Ridge, achieved an RPD greater than 2.0 with low overfitting, demonstrating the potential for rapid soil analysis to support sustainable agriculture.
