water shortage crisis is an issue that has led to drastic changes in different agricultural policies, especially in arid and semi-arid areas. uncertainty in the amount of resources, e.g. water, used for agricultural production entails risk for farmers' income and cropping pattern changes. in the present study, the robust optimization model was used for optimal allocation of arable lands of khor...

abstract surface water restriction and supply variation of these resources causes of over extraction of groundwater and unbalance between feed and extraction of groundwater in iran. agricultural sector as the biggest consumer of water resources has the most share of this unsustainability. this paper studies the conjunctive use of surface and groundwater in agronomy production in qazvin basin, o...

Determination of optimal cropping pattern is essential for arid and semiarid regions with deficit water resources. Fars province is located in the southern part of I.R. of Iran with mean annual precipitation from 50 to 1000 mm and in most parts of this province water resources for agriculture are deficit. Jahrom region with semi-arid climate is located in Fars province with mean annual rainfall...

in order to study the weeds frequency and dry matter in corn and cowpea sole cropping and intercropping systems, an experiment using replacement and additive techniques was conducted using different combination of intercropping in seven levels with ratio of 1:1 (50% corn + 50% cowpea), 1:2 (33% + 67%), 2:1 (67% + 33%), (100% + 20%), (100% + 10%), 100% corn and 100% cowpea, two levels optimal an...

evaluation of rainfall effect on programing of agricultural management (case study: golestan region) abstract securing of water need in agricultural is important. precipitation are one of the most important of water resources in agricultural, in golestan province, especially , because alborze mountains are in golestan south. in research has investigated effects of rainfall to cropping pattern a...

Time series data on cropping pattern at disaggregated level were analysed and its implications on geospatial drought assessment were demonstrated. An index of Cropping Pattern Dissimilarity (CP-DI) between a pair of years, developed in this study, proved that the cropping pattern of a year has a higher degree of similarity with that of recent past years only and tends to be dissimilar with long...

Sustainability in agricultural is determined by aspects like economy, society and environment. Multi-objective programming (MOP) model has been a widely used tool for studying and analyzing the sustainability of agricultural system. However, optimization models in most applications are forced to use data which is uncertain. Recently, robust optimization has been used as an optimization model th...
