| Abstract | The intensification of agricultural practices, in particular the growing use of fertilizers and pesticides, and the specialization and concentration of crop and livestock production, have an increasing impact on environment. This paper presents a crop planning model based on portfolio theory. The model takes into account several uncertainties as weather risks, market risks and environmental risks. Several environmental levels for the application of fertilizers/pesticides are defined. Monetary penalties for overcoming these levels, are considered. The sum of the penalties is called the environmental risk of the crop plan. The model has several constraints: budget constraints, expected return constraints and crop demand constraints. The objective map is the environmental risk. The decision variables are represented by the crop plan that is: a binary matrix that describes the crop allocations to plots and the quantities of chemical fertilizers and pesticides that are applied to crops. The goal of the model is to find the crop plans that minimize the objective map. A numerical example is considered. Simulations of the return - environmental risk efficient frontier for various lengths of historical data are analyzed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
