The aim of thisstudy is to investigate drying kinetics of Asparagus officinalis. According to R, ?2, RMSEand Error values, the model parameters at different temperatures (70°C, 80°C, 90°C),spear thickness (1 mm, 2 mm and 3mm), and microwave power (100 W, 200 W, and300W) were compared. Midilli and Kucuk equation was found as the best equation todescribe drying of Asparagus officinalis. R values of Midilli and Kucuk Equationchanged between 0.8886 and 0.9989 for hot air drying and between 0.9568 and 0.9999for a microwave drying.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBiyolojiBahçe BitkileriTarımsal Ekonomi ve PolitikaMatematikZiraat MühendisliğiBitki Bilimleriİstatistik ve OlasılıkZiraatToprak BilimiArticle6101431143610.24925/turjaf.v6i10.1431-1436.2060325052
