摘要:
AbstractThis paper includes development of an application of a linear programming model for agricultural planning in India. The objective is one of allocating production of 16 major crops among regions in a manner to maximize food output from a given collection of resources. Welfare economic restraints are included to assure that cultivators in all regions are left equally well or better off in income level. The programming results provide for important reallocations of production among regions. They result in a projected gain of around 12.5 percent in total food production from given resources, even when limits are placed on the magnitude of shift which can take place. A series of implied prices are derived from the dual solution, to indicate the magnitudes of subsidy needed to attain minimum income restraints in each region.
