A Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process-Based Analysis of the Dynamic Sustainable Management Index in Leisure Agriculture

Abstract

<jats:p>Agricultural leisure is one of the development trends in modern society. However, in leisure agriculture management, managers must consider the dual characteristics of agricultural production technology and the leisure service industry. Therefore, managers often face various selection pressures during management decision-making. This study examined the following five evaluation aspects: organization and operation, leisure agricultural resources, environmental maintenance management, public facility maintenance management, and operational performance. Thereafter, according to the five evaluation aspects, 21 subprojects were further divided at the second level on the basis of different attributes. Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) was adopted to calculate the relative weights of various indicators, and the indicators were dynamically sorted according to their importance. Moreover, the study summarized the dynamic management indicators of leisure agriculture and contributed to research on leisure farming. The results show that managers’ approach toward leisure agriculture management can be divided into three types: active, moderate, and conservative. The indicators in which the active managers attach importance when managing leisure agricultural enterprises are clearly different from those valued by moderate and conservative managers. Finding managers who are suitable for leisure agriculture management is of great significance to leisure agriculture enterprises. Appointing managers with appropriate attitudes who can continuously improve the efficiency of enterprises and create a competitive advantage can bring sustainable business value to these enterprises.</jats:p>

Criteria for Choosing Thermal Packaging for Temperature Sensitive Goods Transportation

“…Saaty's approach is based on crisp values -criteria can be ranked in linear order. Authors like Ju [36], Ishizaka and Nguyen [35], and recently Lin [37] have argued that humans cannot comprehend complex relationships between many criteria and fuzzy numbers should be used for more representative comparison. Fuzzy values are characterized by coordinates representing area, opposite to crisp values representing vectors with one direction.…”

Evaluation of the Prediction Capability of AHP and F_AHP Methods in Flood Susceptibility Mapping of Ernakulam District (India)

“…F-AHP is an AHP approach developed utilizing the theory of fuzzy logic (Putra et al 2018). The fuzzy approach that represents uncertainty in human judgements together with the AHP method can be used to provide more precise, specific, and realistic outcomes (Kaya et al 2020;Lin 2020). In this study, the Buckley (1985) technique was followed by comparing the fuzzy ratios described as triangular membership functions.…”

Neutrosophic Completion Technique for Incomplete Higher-Order AHP Comparison Matrices

“…A continuous membership function is a defined value in the real unit interval. Thus defined, the fuzzy sets theory establishes a practical baseline for modeling the non-probabilistic uncertainties of human thinking and has been therefore widely applied in decision-making problems in recent years [22][23][24].…”
