Programming the monthly agricultural marketing: The case of Almeria (Spain) horticultural crops
Keywords:
Exportación, optimización, planificación, programación matemática.Abstract
This article analyses the programming of farm production, understood not only as the choice among several crops but also as their temporal distribution. First the programming of the production for an individual company is studied, where its decisions do not affect equilibrium market prices: in this case we use a Markowitz model adapted to the temporal programming of the commercialization. Secondly, the sales arrangements for an operator with capacity, given its trading volume, to alter the market equilibrium will be analyzed: in this case we propose a model which maximises monthly incomes and margins.
