Optimizing product quality in molecular farming

Optimizing Product Combination in Continuous Production Companies

The optimum use of the upstream resources, production corresponding to the market demands, and structural constraints for the optimum production with the less wastes during the most rapid time required by the market which finally result in the more profit for the shareholders are considered as the major objectives of this research. In this research, for the purpose of increasing the efficiency ...

Advances in plant molecular farming.

Plant molecular farming (PMF) is a new branch of plant biotechnology, where plants are engineered to produce recombinant pharmaceutical and industrial proteins in large quantities. As an emerging subdivision of the biopharmaceutical industry, PMF is still trying to gain comparable social acceptance as the already established production systems that produce these high valued proteins in microbia...

Mathematical models for optimizing production chain planning in salmon farming

The salmon farming production chain is structured in four consecutive phases: freshwater, seawater, plant processing, and distribution and marketing. The phases interact in a pull manner, freshwater stocks fish to meet seawater’s demand, seawater produces to meet plant processing biomass demand, and the processing plant produces to satisfy consumers’ demand. Freshwater planning decisions are in...

Wheat Growing and Quality in Organic Farming

Agricultural crop species represent a negligible part of the existing biodiversity. Over 50 percent of the daily global requirement of proteins and calories is met by just three crops – maize, wheat and rice (FAO, 1996) – and only 150 crops are commercialised on a significant global scale. On the other hand, ethnobotanic surveys indicate that, worldwide, more than 7,000 plant species are cultiv...
