Agricultural Land Allocation to the Major Crops through Linear Programming Model
Abstract: Linear Programming technique is applied to determine the optimum land allocation to fourteen major crops using agriculture data with respect to various factors like land utilization, labour in mandays, seeds, fertilizes, yields for crops for the period 2010 -2011. The problem is solved by LINDO software. The study is carried out in the Patan district of Gujarat, India. The aim of the study is to get more production there for more profit for the marginal and small farm holders. The proposed linear programming model is appropriate for finding the optimal land allocation to the major crops of the study area.
Keywords: Land allocation, Linear programming, Patan District
