Planning models for floriculture operations
Ruiz-Torres, Alex J.; Villalobos, J. Rene; … - In: International Journal of Applied Management Science 4 (2012) 2, pp. 148-164
This paper proposes planning models that will assist a flower grower with the land and flower variety allocation decisions in such a way that the revenues (or profits) are maximised over a given planning period. In particular, this paper presents models where the mix of flowers is modified...
