Abstract—We set up a linear programming problem of agricultural land allocation in vegetable production on a case study of a family farm in Croatia. It was solved by Excels’ tool Solver. We discuss on setting up the problem, the solution and the obtained sensitivity report. Further, we set up and solve a dynamical optimization problem to determine the optimal production for the second year respecting crop rotation rules.
Index Terms—Crop rotation, linear programming, vegetable production, optimization of vegetable production.
