Using improved climate forecasting in cash crop planning
ABSTRACT Developments in meteorology over the last couple of decades have enabled significant improvements to be made in the accuracy of seasonal forecasts. This paper focuses on developing a model for cash crop planning that utilises these forecasts. It does this by determining the rate of growth of each crop as a function of heat units accumulated. This enables time to maturity to be determin...
متن کاملYield and Price Forecasting for Stochastic Crop Decision Planning
Crop decision planning is an important part of effective farm management. Because of the many uncertain factors such as weather variations, technology advances, and crop yields and prices, all of which prove to change considerably, decision planning can be very complex. The focus of this paper is to develop accurate yield and price forecasting models to aid in decision planning. For yield forec...
متن کاملCase-Based Reasoning for Cash-Flow Forecasting using Fuzzy Retrieval
Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) simulates human way of solving problems as it solves a new problem using a successful past experience applied to a similar problem. In this paper we describe a CBR system that performs forecasts for cash flow accounts. Forecasting cash flows to a certain degree of accuracy, is an important aspect of a Working Capital decision support system. Working Capital (WC) manag...
متن کاملCrop Planning using Stochastic Visual Optimization
As the world population increases and arable land decreases, it becomes vital to improve the productivity of the agricultural land available. Given the weather and soil properties, farmers need to take critical decisions such as which seed variety to plant and in what proportion, in order to maximize productivity. These decisions are irreversible and any unusual behavior of external factors, su...
متن کاملProject Cash Flow Forecasting: a Mathematical Approach
A proactive approach to project cash flow management relies heavily on the use of a forecasting model that is, on the one hand, capable of generating reasonably accurate forecasts and, on the other hand, offers the flexibility which enables the financial manager to challenge the outcome of the forecast in the direction of corporate financial objectives of the organization. The latter was the su...
