DECISION SUPPORT TOOL FOR FARMERS PRODUCING INDUSTRIAL TOMATOES IN ALGERIA
Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 8
Abstract
The production of industrial tomatoes is now facing increasingly stringent requirements imposed by the Algerian market and the growing competition. In this circumstance, and in order to remain competitive, the industrial tomato farmer must improve his production in terms of quantity and quality. It is therefore necessary for the farmer to follow a specific technical itinerary during the operation. In th is study, we have developed a decision support tool, to partition optimally a certain amount of money kept on reserve to cover the costs of operation on the different activities of the technical itinerary, this partition allows to get as close as possible to an ideal technical itinerary in order to maximize the harvest, which implies maximizing profit.
