Integrated Farm Model For Optimal Allocation Of Resources- A Linear Programming Approach, Mahak Bhatia, Anil Rana

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The mathematical model for optimal allocation of farm resources, especially land and water are proposed to optimize the resources that contribute to increase farm revenues. A study is being carried out, to analyze the cropping practice adopted by growers, depending on availability and accessibility of resources. Different crop-combinations and cropping patterns are being analyzed in districts of Rajasthan. Rajasthan has arid topography with varying weather conditions. Thus, a diverse crop variety is being cultivated in a region. Being a state with inadequate water resources, the formulated model proposed different crop combinations alternatives. A crop-mix model is developed to reduce the …
