Alternative measures of variance in risk programming models (1978)
A method of obtaining an approximately efficient set of farm plans in terms of expected income and variance of income using ordinary linear programming is described. The method is novel in that it...
OPTIMAL FERTILIZER CARRYOVER AND CROP RECYCLING POLICIES FOR A TROPICAL GRAIN CROP
Kennedy, J.O.S., Whan, I.F., Jackson, R., Dillon, J.L.
The consequences of carryover for the optimal application of fertilizer are considered using dynamic programming. The conclusions are relevant for the further problem of deciding how many grain crops...
