Abstract

This paper presents an extended version of goal programming (GP) approach for modeling and solving farm planning problems having objectives with interval parameter sets by utilizing farming resources in the planning horizon. In the model formulation of the problem, the defined goals with interval parameters are converted into conventional goals by using interval arithmetic technique in interval programming and introducing under- and over-deviational variables to each of them. In the decision process, extended GP (EGP) approach, i.e. convex combination of both the modelling aspects, minsum GP and minmax GP are addressed in the achievement function for minimizing the possible regret towards goal achievement from the optimistic point of view in the inexact decision making environment. The potential use of the approach is demonstrated via a case example.
