Abstrakt: Research on the observation of nutrient release rates from slow-release and regular fertilizers combined with the percolation rate in the soil is scarce. This work aims to observe potassium and phosphate release behavior from slow-release and regular fertilizer, followed by the percolation of that nutrient in the soil. The characteristics of the soil were analyzed using X-ray Diffraction (XRD), X-ray Fluorescence (XRF), and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The concentration of potassium and phosphate in soil is analyzed using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) and Ultraviolet–Visible Spectroscopy (UV–Vis), respectively. The release rate of nutrients from slow-release fertilizer is 6 to 8 times slower than regular fertilizer. Meanwhile, the rate of nutrients released from slow-release and regular fertilizer followed by soil percolation matches the quadratic equation. Potassium adsorption on the soil surface is significantly higher than that of potassium. The negativity of soil polarity contributed to the high level of potassium adsorption on soil particle surfaces. The low phosphate adsorption capability of magnetite and the negativity of soil polarity contributed to the soil's low phosphate adsorption. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
