Development of agriculture depends on optimal land allocation. The development towards optimal utilization of land under cultivation and thereby increasing the production of crops and profit with less fertilizer consumption have to be taken into consideration in agriculture planning. In this paper different agriculture strategies are developed and accordingly, single objective optimization mode...

usage of inputs is one of the most important factors affecting agricultural production variations. thus, in the evaluation of production function, it is reasonable to consider the effects of inputs usage on the production fluctuation. east azerbaijan province is one of the five major producing in iran and tabriz plain and the most important region of the province for onion production. the main ...

most regions of iran are confronted with inadequate supply and excessive demand of water in agriculture sector mainly resulting from a high difference between water providing cost and its price. coping with such a challenge needs to determine the water price based on the economic principles and its value in agricultural production. the aim of this study was to determine the economic value of th...

production is hard to achieve by increasing cropping area due to limited water resources. so, increased yield per unit area may be the solution to increase production. investigating productivity of production factors is very important in this context. the objective of this study is to measure the productivity of production factors in sugar beet production in fars province. the data needed for t...

High N fertilizer and flooding irrigation applied to rice on anthropogenic-alluvial soil often result in N leaching and low recovery of applied fertilizer N from the rice fields in Ningxia irrigation region in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, which threatens ecological environment, food security, and sustainable agricultural development. This paper reported the regulating N application fo...

The general objective of this study was to trace the intensi®cation process on sandy soils in the Birni N'Konni area of south central Niger and to identify the role of traditional and modern inputs. The primary hypothesis is that farmers intensify ®rst using traditional inputs, such as traditional varieties, labor and manure, and turn to modern inputs, like inorganic fertilizer, improved variet...

this study investigates the effects of inputs on production risk of sugar beet  farmers in fars province. the study carried out in 1996. the needed data  were collected by completing questionnaire  from 120 farmers in fars selected through a two-stage cluster sampling survey. the results showed that pesticide, animal fertilizer, seed and irrigation have significant effects on production changes...

This study aims to ascertain how production inputs affect cassava farming and examine use as efficiently possible. The research location was selected because the area is a center for production. Cobb-Douglas function model an analytical technique used assess output. Analyze level of input utilization optimization at same time by comparing marginal product's value other inputs. study's variables...
