Book Synopsis Multiple Criteria Analysis for Agricultural Decisions, Second Edition by : C. Romero
Download or read book Multiple Criteria Analysis for Agricultural Decisions, Second Edition written by C. Romero and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2003-03-21 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) paradigm for modelling agricultural decision-making in three parts. The first part, comprising two chapters, is philosophical in nature and deals with the concepts that define the underlying structure of the MCDM paradigm. The second part is the largest part consisting of five chapters, each of which presents the logic of a specific MCDM technique, and demonstrates how it can be used to model a particular decision problem. In the final part, some selected applications of the MCDM techniques to agricultural problems are presented and thus reinforce the development of an understanding of the MCDM paradigm. The book has been designed for use at different levels: as a textbook for final year undergraduate and postgraduate courses in modelling for decision-making; as a manual for researchers and practising modellers; and, as general reference on the application of MCDM techniques. Readers with basic appreciation of algebra and linear programming can easily follow the contents of this book.

Book Synopsis Modeling Farm Decisions For Policy Analysis by : Kenneth H Baum
Download or read book Modeling Farm Decisions For Policy Analysis written by Kenneth H Baum and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-03-08 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microeconomic modeling has been an important tool for agricultural economists for several decades and promises to be important for ad-dressing the research problems of the 1980s as well. This volume explores the possibilities for using micromodeling to analyze how individual farm businesses react to and are affected by farm policies. Although this purpose represents only one potential use of micro-modeling, effective modeling for policy analysis necessitates a broad look from several historical, analytical, and institutional perspectives. The Micromodeling Conference held November 18-20, 1981, at Airlie House, Virginia, under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Agri-culture's Economic Research Service and the Farm Foundation reflected these concerns.

Book Synopsis Multicriteria Analysis in Agriculture by : Julio Berbel
Download or read book Multicriteria Analysis in Agriculture written by Julio Berbel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-18 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book outlines the latest trends in the use of multicriteria analysis in agriculture by highlighting recent applications for modeling agricultural decision-making. It introduces specific case studies using multicriteria analysis as a method for selecting multiattribute discrete alternatives or solving multiobjective planning problems. The book is intended for a broad readership, including agricultural and environmental economists, engineers and all scientists whose work involves the management of agricultural resources and decision-making in agriculture. The methods and applications presented in this book cover decision-making processes in agricultural and environmental contexts. The methodologies described consider multiple criteria simultaneously in a wide range of complex decision-making contexts by taking into account multiple, conflicting criteria. Given the wide range of case studies covered, the book offers a comprehensive guide to decision-making in the agricultural context and beyond.

Book Synopsis Investigation of Multi-criteria Decision Analysis Approaches for Agricultural Decision-making in Southern Ontario by : Li Zhang
Download or read book Investigation of Multi-criteria Decision Analysis Approaches for Agricultural Decision-making in Southern Ontario written by Li Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Land-use and land-cover change has significant impact on the Earth's ecosystems and global carbon cycle, which calls for well-planned land management strategies. This study presented a multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) for agricultural land-use allocation integrating environmental, social, and economic factors with human preferences. The agent-based modelling of agricultural land-use allocation shows that integrating a multi-objective decision analysis (MODA) of land amount allocation in land-use allocation will result in different land use allocation results from directly allocate land-use on fields. In addition to general land-use types of cropland, pasture, and woodland studied in MODA, a specific crop of corn was selected for site analysis with a multi-attribute suitability analysis based on soil, topography, and climate characteristics on potential sites and farmers' opinions about relative importance of these criteria. This study reveals that land management on land with heterogeneity is important and human preferences and decision-making strategies have significant impact on LUCC.

Download or read book ANALYTICAL TECHNIQUES FOR DECI written by S. S. Raju and published by Daya Publishing House. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book on "Analytical Techniques for Decision Making in Agriculture" is to focus on data analysis methods with sophisticated algorithms for processing large volumes of data which has opened up exciting opportunities for analyzing data in newer ways. This book will provide knowledge on various analytical techniques which the academicians can apply to data sets from their respective domains and present the model which can help in forecasting, prediction, classification or decision making. It is conceived with an idea to provide insight to the readers about the enormous potential of analytical tools and to explore it in the area of agriculture. It aims to achieve the following objectives: 1. To improve understanding of the basic concepts and tools for socio-economic and agricultural data management and analysis for taking decisions in agriculture based on large data sets. 2. To sensitize and expose readers to various econometric methods and models for agricultural decision making. This book presents recent advances in methods for efficient data analysis, management, quantitative and analytical tools used in agricultural decision making. The book is a tool of information that will serve the readers to keep abreast of knowledge and techniques in this broad field. The book also is an inspiration for further theoretical and practical pursuits which will open up exciting opportunities for analyzing data in newer ways.
