Abstract:The seed supply chain is one of most sophisticated elements of the agricultural value chain with long lead times, fragmented structure and high levels of uncertainty. Since the seed industry has received less attention in research compared with other sectors in the agriculture industry, it has enormous potential for improvement due to the lack of comprehensive mathematical optimization applications, increasing competition within the industry and decreasing spare arable land worldwide. All of the existing optim… Show more
“…In the general area of planning and scheduling, Zhu et al (2019) improve the agricultural value chain by proposing an optimization scheme for seed production planning at a regional level that accounts for uncertainty in crop yields. The authors apply their method on a real-life industrial case study and report considerable savings in total costs as well as reductions in land usage.…”
