Abstract:

The work seeks to construct an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model to predict the yield of jasmine rice 105, utilizing the field, soil, and agro-climatic information of Ban Samran, Nong Khaen Subdistrict, Pathum Rat District, Roi Et Province, Thailand. The study was conducted from 2014 to 2023, and the data were collected from 130 paddy fields, covering primary and secondary daily datasets, and processing variables such as the Growing Degree Days (GDD), Sunshine Duration Days (SDD), and cumulative rainfall. Preprocessing the datasets normalizes all variables by the min-max method before loading them into the network. After network design, the performance of the developed network has evaluated the model by common measures of accuracy and efficiency of the model, and its results imply that the new model has highly accurate predictions of the yield, which was validated by having the root mean square error of 1.05 kg/rai, the mean absolute error of 0.90 kg/rai, the relative mean absolute error of 0.25%, and the coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.99, which confirm the success of the model in identifying the differences of the yield. Also, the new model performs precision enhancement by demonstrating prediction errors of about five to seven times smaller when compared to the traditional models such as Multiple Linear Regression, Polynomial Regression, Random Forest, and the Support Ma Regression models. The results also implicate the factors affecting rice yield, including the cumulative rainfall from the flowering stage, the maximum temperatures in the milky stage, the Soil Electrical Conductivity (EC), the Soil Organic Matter (OM), and the planting date. Lastly, the results indicate that the new model has significant effectiveness and contribution to the applicability of planting and water resource techniques and yield prediction for the Thung Kula Rong Hai Region.
