chart 1 (above). An inverse relationship exists between the two variables, as the
moisture ratio declines with increasing time. A sample's moisture ratio calculates the
difference between its original moisture content and its current moisture content (t).
According to Obajemihi, the drying rate, which is influenced by the rate of heat
application and the rate of moist air removal from the environment, is the rate at
which moisture leaves the sample and transfers to the outside environment (2020).

al. research, both the temperature and velocity of the drying air have a major impact
on how quickly things dry out. Each constant in the formula is assumed to have a
value of one in order to derive the estimated moisture ratio (MR) of six mathematical
models. These constant values are then included into the model equations. After
obtaining the predicted values, the sum of squared errors (SSE) for each model is
computed. SSE is computed as SSE = (yi - y'i)2, where yi is the predicted variable
value and y'i is the predicted yi value. The SSE for each model is then calculated by
adding all of the SSE equation values. The total of the SSE is utilized with Excel
Solver to obtain the true values of the constants, as the constants were previously
coefficient of determination, or R2, of about 0.99 out of the six presented. With R2
values of 0.9932, 0.993, and 0.993, respectively, these three models are closely
grouped together. The Logarithmic model is the most accurate when compared to
the experimental moisture ratio data and the anticipated moisture ratio values of
these three models. This suggests that the logarithmic model is the best option
among the models offered and is most appropriate for identifying the drying
ourselves professionally and in terms of professions that are related to our present
subject of study. A key component of assuring the quality and safety of agricultural
Profits and economic stability are directly related to the manufacturing of high-
quality goods. We were also able to find the best models for forecasting values and
approach.
