An important factor in sustainable agriculture and economic management is to calculate areas under different crops that the inputs of agriculture connect to this topic. Planning of agricultural mechanization, fertilizer and pesticide requirements, pests and diseases control, estimates of agricultural production, income and tax and financial planning, all linked to the cultivated areas and estim...

Jeffrey, S.R., Gibson, R.R. and Faminow, M.D., 1992. Nearly optimal linear programming as a guide to agricultural planning. Agric. Econ., 8: 1-19. Linear programming has long been used as a tool in agricultural planning. This paper presents and discusses a technique that can be used in conjunction with linear programming to evaluate 'nearly optimal' solutions. This technique is referred to as N...

this article analyses spatial political, economic and social contexts of successful of farming and livestock development in the area of Ili river valley (AoIRV). AoIRV is located on Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (XUAR), where is a vital and historical agricultural area in this region. In the Context of ‘Western Development Drive’ of China, central government enhance the support for western r...

A method is proposed to handle crop succession requirements when determining the cultivated areas of n crops for a planning period of T years. For each year, the decision variables represent the areas where a sequence of m crops is cultivated, m ≥ 1. Here, m + 1 is the length of the longest forbidden sequence of crops not containing any forbidden subsequences. The crop succession constraints ar...

The PIDS Discussion Paper Series constitutes studies that are preliminary and subject to further revisions. They are being circulated in a limited number of copies only for purposes of soliciting comments and suggestions for further refinements. The studies under the Series are unedited and unreviewed. The views and opinions expressed are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect th...

The purpose of this paper is to present how the fuzzy goal programming (FGP) in the area of mathematical programming (MP) can be efficiently used for modeling and solving agricultural planning problems to achieve the target levels of production of various crops cultivated in different seasons in a year and make the profit by allocating the cultivable land properly and utilising the available pr...

This paper presents a B-spline based path planning approach for agricultural guidance applications which is able to handle successively generated trajectories. Additionally, the lateral controller which was used to calculate the steering angle is described and the method by which the required parameters were determined is introduced. We explain stepwise how the output of a perception system is ...
