Mathematical modeling of supply chain operations has proven to be one of the most complex tasks in the field of operations management and operations research. Despite the abundance of several modeling proposals in the literature; for vast majority of them, no effective universal application is conceived. This issue renders the proposed mathematical models inapplicable due largely to the fact th...

Contemporary Australian rangeland management is characterised by concurrent processes of a continuing intensification of land management practices and simplification of landscape ecological processes. This dual characteristic is associated with increasing levels of potential conflict between land management practices that promote improved economic performance of rangeland enterprises at the app...

this paper presents a method for generating a digital management map to apply cyanazine pre-emergence herbicide. the main objective was to develop a precision method to generate management maps for the variable rate application of herbicide to reduce the amount of herbicide applied and its adverse impact on the environment. first, local and utm coordinates of a field were determined using total...

Numerous researchers and practitioners are attracted to sustainability in supply chains (SCS) and it has become one of the favorite topics among academics and industries. The purpose of this paper is to review and analyze the research studies that have been published in the field of sustainable supply chain management (SSCM). A total 242 articles published between 2000 and 2019 reviewed. Conten...

Soil erosion is a serious problem especially in northern parts of Iran. One themost important side effects on soil erosion may be the decline in qualities of soil refers toagricultural productivity. So it is very important to assess the soil erosion risk for thesustainable development of agriculture. This study outlines ways undertaken to provide anew tool to manage water erosion from physical ...

One challenge in the effort to conserve biodiversity is identifying where to prioritize resources for active land management. Cost-benefit analyses have been used successfully as a conservation tool to identify sites that provide the greatest conservation benefit per unit cost. Our goal was to apply cost-benefit analysis to the question of how to prioritize land management efforts, in our case ...
