Technology adoption has been the main obstacle in realizing agricultural potential in the country in general and Bihar in particular. The present study focuses on level of adoption, access of farmers to farm technology, quality of modern technology, access to agricultural extension institutions...

Immediately after the green revolution period, there was an intense debate on the observed inverse relationship between farm size and per hectare agricultural productivity in India. It was subsequently argued that the higher productivity of small holdings would disappear with the adoption of...

This paper considers the classical newsvendor model when, (a) demand is autocorrelated, (b) the parameters of the marginal distribution of demand are unknown, and (c) historical data for demand are available for a sample of successive periods. An estimator for the optimal order quantity is...

In this paper we investigate the convexity of the annual total cost function for the Hadley & Whitin (1963) continuous review (Q,R) inventory model with backorders and fixed lead-time, when the reorder point is non-negative and the cost per unit backordered is used to calculate the expected...

Three estimation policies for the optimal order quantity of the classical newsvendor model under exponential demand are evaluated in the current paper. According to the principle of the first estimation policy, the corresponding estimator is obtained replacing in the theoretical formula which...

In the classical newsvendor model, when demand is represented by the normal distribution singly truncated at point zero, the standard optimality condition does not hold. Particularly, we show that the probability not to have stock-out during the period is always greater than the critical...

In this paper we investigate the minimization process of the exact cost function for a continuous review (Q,R) inventory model with non-negative reorder point and fixed lead-time. Backorders are allowed and the unit shortage cost is used to determine the expected annual shortage cost. Provided...

In the current paper we study a real life inventory problem whose operating conditions match to the principles of the classical newsvendor model. Applying appropriate tests to the available sample of historical demand data, we get the sufficient statistical evidences to support that daily demand...
