To assess the effect of non chemical management of weed control on forage Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) a field study was conducted in Varamin, Iran during 2010 crop year in a three- replicated- split factorial experiment laid out in randomized complete block design with four weeding levels (W1= one time cultivation at 3-leaf stage using a duck foot cultivator, W2<...

study of economic efficiency is of particular significance in evaluation of the public sector of the economy. there two alternative critorias for the measurement of efficiency: namely ratio analysis, and frontier &apos;analysis. the first criteria takes the ratio of inputs as compared to the outputs. the second criteria, however.first attempts to stablisb the product and cost efficiency frontie...

The great challenge of the agricultural sector is to produce more food and/or more revenue from less water, which can be achieved by optimal irrigation management. A task of primary importance is the problem of intraseasonal irrigation scheduling under limited seasonal water supply. On the intraseasonal level, a limited amount of water is to be distributed over a number of irrigations, taking i...

weather and climatic parameters and their impact on farming plants are one of the foremost effective factors on improvement of crop yield. the potential facilities of various regions may be determined with agroclimatic study and exploit maximally from these facilities. in order to evaluate agroclimate of colza cultivation throughout the selected substations at hamedan province in this current i...

[naeini1] in this paper, a new method is proposed to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fuzzy multi-objective linear programming problems (fmolpp) with fuzzy right hand side and fuzzy decision variables. due to the imprecise nature of available resources, determination of a definitive solution to the model seems impossible. therefore, the proposed model is designed in order to make fuzzy decisi...

A Multiobjective Intuitionistic Fuzzy Linear Programming model is developed to get an optimal cropping pattern in the command area of Ukai-Kakrapar Irrigation project Gujarat, India. Four conflicting objectives, namely, maximization net irrigation benefits (NIB), employment (EG), minimization cultivation cost (CC), and revenue generation on account industrial municipal supplies (MI) were optimi...

many real water resources optimization problems involve conflicting objectives. in this study, multiobjective genetic algorithm nsga-ii, has been developed for optimization the conjunctive use of surface water and groundwater resources and optimal management of supply and demand of agricultural water. here, optimal allocation of land and water resources to the dominant products in najaf abad pl...
