Fuzzy Stochastic Genetic Algorithm for Obtaining Optimum Crops Pattern and Water Balance in a Farm

This paper is concerned with multi-objective fuzzy stochastic model for determination of optimum cropping patterns with water balance for the next crop season. The objective functions of the model is to study the effect of various cropping patterns on crop production subject to total water supply in a small farm. The decision variables are the cultivated area of different crops at the farm. The water requirement of the crops follows fuzzy uniform distribution and yields in the objective functions are taken as a fuzzy numbers. The model is solved by using fuzzy stochastic simulation based genetic algorithm without deriving the deterministic equivalents.
