Planning for a Feedlot Expansion
نویسنده
چکیده
www.extension.umn.edu/beef In spite of increasing corn prices, incentives for feedlot expansion exist in the Upper Midwest due to the increased supply of ethanol co-product feeds, relatively inexpensive corn and forage, availability of crop land for manure application, and clearly defined feedlot regulations in states like Minnesota. A recent estimate of distillers’ grains supply of 24 million tons by the year 2010, and currently slow exports will likely result in an oversupply of distillers’ grains at prices below par with corn ($90 to $100/dry ton). On the other hand, pressure from high corn and fuel prices, and low availability of crop land for manure application in the Texas panhandle will likely pressure feeders to consider expansion or relocation to the Upper Midwest.

A Fuzzy Multi Objective Programming Model for Power Generation and Transmission Expansion Planning Problem
The increasing consumption of electricity over time forces different countries to establishnew power plants and transmission lines. There are various crisp single-objective mathematicalmodels in the literature for the long-term power generation and transmission expansion planning tohelp the decision makers to make more reasonable decisions. But, in practice, most of the parametersassociated wit...

In this paper, a model for hybrid transmission expansion planning (TEP) and reactive power planning (RPP) considering demand response (DR) model has been presented. In this study RPP considered by TEP for its effects on lines capacity and reduction of system expansion costs. On the other hand the expansion of the transmission system is an important subject, especially dealing with the new i...

An important factor to be considered in electric power system expansion planning is the security of service that the system is able to provide. In restructured power systems, variables such as agents’ profit or Locational Marginal Price (LMP) variances are considered in transmission expansion planning. To have a secure network this plan would be refined for simulated contingencies. This p...

A new market based approach for transmission expansion planning in deregulated environments is presented in this paper. In this approach, transmission-planning decisions are made based on the electric power market conditions. The main contribution of this research is 1) Introducing a new probabilistic tool for analyzing the electric market conditions, 2) Defining new criteria for ranking transm...
