On Fuzzy Cluster Modeling in the Analysis of Land Suitability for Crop Cultivation

Fuzzy clustering is a data analysis technique that, when applied to a set of heterogeneous items, identifies homogenous subgroups as defined by a given model or measure of similarity in fuzzy environment. Moreover, fuzzy clustering methodology has been developed and used in variety of areas like biology, computer science, engineering, medicine etc. In this paper, fuzzy cluster model is developed to analyze the land suitability based on the nutrients requirements of various agricultural crops for cultivation. Finally, to demonstrate the model, an analytic technique for land suitability analysis is given in this paper.
