This study considered the production economics of coffee in Pakuwa village development committee of Parbat district, Nepal. Household Survey was done in June 2014. Data collection was done using semi-structured pre-tested questionnaire administered on 40 coffee producers selected randomly. Gross margin analysis, profitability index and the benefit-cost ratio was used to analyze the production e...

This paper develops a method for solving the single product multi-period production-planning problem, in which the production and the inventory costs of each period arc concave and backlogging is not permitted. It is also assumed that the unit variable cost of the production evolves according to a continuous time Markov process. We prove that this production-planning problem can be Stated as a ...

in this study, yield-water and profit function was used to obtain water demand function in agriculture sector. the results showed that the ratio of actual to potential evapotranspiration had positive, significant effecton the ratio of actual to potential yield for wheat and barley. also, square ratio of actual to potential evapotranspiration had negative, significant relationship. after estimat...

Efficient use of assets in agriculture is a goal for policy-makers and farmers. Agricultural input resources are scarce therefore optimum use of inputs in different agricultural operations is important. Mathematical programming technique such as data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a well-known approach for estimation efficiency of agricultural DMUs. In this study, efficiency of kidney bean produ...

In this paper, a bi-objective multi-product single-vendor single-buyer supply chain problem is studied under green vendor-managed inventory (VMI) policy based on the economic production quantity (EPQ) model. To bring the model closer to real-world supply chain, four constraints of model including backordering cost, number of orders, production budget and warehouse space are considered stochasti...

In the classical economic production quantity (EPQ) problem demand is considered to be known in advance. However, in the real-world, demand of a product is a function of factors such as product’s price, its quality, and marketing expenditures for promoting the product. Quality level of the product and specifications of the adopted manufacturing process also affect the unit product’s cost. There...

production planning and scheduling are the most important issues of the production industries, which have a considerable influence on the productivity of the production systems. although, production planning and scheduling are in two different medium-term and short-term decision making levels, there are a very close relationship between them. ignoring this important feature in production planni...
