Present study is an application of fuzzy optimization technique in agricultural planning particularly for farmers of Patan district, North Gujarat, India. Generally the crop planning problem is formulated as linear programming problem but in real situation there are many uncertain factors in agricultural production planning problems. Therefore future profit for crops is imprecise and uncertain. In this article an attempt is made to formulate a model for crop planning.
Decision Making in Agriculture: A Linear Programming Approach
Linear programming (LP) technique is relevant in optimization of resource allocation and achieving efficiency in production planning particularly in achieving increased agriculture production of food crops (Rice, Maize, wheat, Pulses and other crops). In this paper a Linear programming technique is applied to determine the optimum land allocation of 5 food crops by using agriculture data, with respect to various factors viz. Daily wages of labour and machine charges for the period 2004-2011. The proposed LP model is solved by standard simplex algorithm. It is observed that the proposed LP model is appropriate for finding the optimal land allocation to the major food crops.

Multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) under uncertain environment is still an open issue. Recently, Znumber has been developed by Zadeh to model fuzzy numbers with the confidence degree. In this paper, Linear programming approach is used for vegetable crop planning under uncertainty. Vegetable crops are in general cost expensive with high risk in profitability due to its fluctuating prices. The projected method uses fuzzy z numbers in multi objective linear programming (MOFZLPP) to model the problem under a situation of uncertainty. Here we consider the quantitative expectations as optimal profit considering profit coefficients as fuzzy random variables by planning of resources: land and labour. A numerical example this approach is used to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method.
An Application of Fuzzy Concept to Agricultural Farm for Decision Making
International Journal of Computer Applications, 2013
In this paper some concept of fuzzy set have discussed and one fuzzy model have applied on agricultural farm for optimal allocation of different crops by considering maximization of net benefit, production and utilization of labour. Crisp values of the objective functions obtained from selected nondominated solutions are converted into triangular fuzzy numbers and ranking of those fuzzy numbers are done to make a decision. .

A study was undertaken in Bhagwanpur distributary of Vaishali Branch Canal in Gandak Canal Command Area, Bihar to optimally allocate land area under different crops (rice and maize in kharif, wheat, lentil, potato in rabi and green gram in summer) in such a manner that maximizes net return, maximizes crop production and minimizes labour requirement employing simplex linear programming method and Multi-Objective Fuzzy Linear Programming (MOFLP) method. Maximum net return, maximum agricultural production, and minimum labour required under defined constraints (including 10% affinity level of farmers to rice and wheat crops) as obtained employing Simplex method were ` 3.7 × 108, 5.06 × 107 Kg and 66,092 man-days, respectively, whereas Multi-Objective Fuzzy Linear Programming (MOFLP) method yielded compromised solution with net return, crop production and labour required as ` 2.4 × 108, 3.3 × 107Kg and 1,79,313 man-days, respectively. As the affinity level of farmers to rice and wheat crops increased from 10% to 40%, maximum net return and maximum production as obtained from simplex linear programming method and MOFLP followed a decreasing trend and minimum labour required followed an increasing trend. MOFLP may be considered as one of the best capable ways of providing a compromised solution, which can fulfill all the objectives at a time.
Maximization Profit of Agricultural Crop Production Through Decision Making Application
Journal of Trends and Challenges in Artificial Intelligence , 2024
In Ethiopia different crops are produce (harvest), the major crops produced in the country are Teff, Sorghum, wheat, bean, barely, raise, pea, nueg and maize. Those crops produced state of nature (uncertain condition) like good condition or poor condition with deferent amount of generating profit in each crop. In this case depend up on the amount of crop produced, high amount of crop produced in good condition in 2017 year and low amount of crop produced in poor condition in 2016 year. In order to maximize the profit of each crop, it needs to minimize the amount of loss during each states of conditions (minimize the maximum regret of each crop). By using decision making criteria and POM software maximize the profit of each crop and evaluate through Maximax, Maximin, and Minimaxi regret criteria. According to assumption of this term paper, the price of the crop during good and poor condition are the same and during each criteria not take a single crop of product, because all of the crops are uses in the country. So it take priority according to their values decision criteria. At the end it select a crop which has low minmax regret and then order according their values of regret from lowest to highest values of the regret.
Modelling and Allocation of Crops: Mathematical Programming Approach
Advances in Research, 2019
Mathematical programming techniques are commonly used by decision makers for achieving efficiency in agricultural production planning. Due to increasing demands of growing population of world, one needs to utilize the limited available resources in the most efficient and economic way. In this paper, the fractional programming problem is formulated and is used to determine the optimal cropping pattern of vegetable crops in such a way that the total profit is maximized. The solution of the formulated Fuzzy programming problem is obtained using LINGO.
Fuzzy goal programming for agricultural land allocation problems
Yugoslav Journal of Operations Research, 2007
This paper presents a fuzzy goal programming (FGP) approach for optimal allocation of land under cultivation and proposes an annual agricultural plan for different crops. In the model formulation, goals such as crop production, net profit, water and labor requirements, and machine utilization are modeled as fuzzy. A tolerance based FGP technique is used to quantify fuzziness of different goals for the problem. The fuzzy goals are transformed to linear constraints by introducing tolerance variables. The program then minimizes the values of the weighted sum of tolerance allowance variables for the highest membership grades, providing the most satisfactory set of allocations possible. As a measure of sensitivity, the problem is solved using different weight structures specified by the decision maker. A case study is provided to illustrate the usefulness of the method. .

International Journal of Students’ Research in Technology & Management, 2019
According to the role and importance of farm management units, using mathematical programming models have an important role in determining optimal cultivation pattern. This study represents theory and applying of fuzzy goal programming model in determination of optimal cultivation pattern considering different goals. Analyzing of fuzzy goal programming model in addition to applying it in determination of optimal cultivation pattern of Ferdowsi University farm has been showed in this study. The results indicate that making flexibility in model coefficients - because of deficiency in information- with fuzzy idea, remove this deficiency extremely and conditions of cultivation pattern relatively improve then inputs and sources are applied optimally.
