E-Kitap - MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION FOR SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE Methods and Case Studies

This book presents various studies demonstrating how researchers and planners in the agricultural field can apply analytical techniques to solve problems at different decision-making levels. Most chapters in this book are products of Industrial Engineering senior capstone projects, developed by students in collaboration with their advisors. Particular attention was paid to diversity in the selection of topics, bringing together spatial decision-making, optimization, system dynamics and biological risk assessment to reflect the multidimensional nature of the sector. Real data were utilized whenever possible. Thus, each chapter can also serve as a valuable case study.
