Optimal crop planning for a region in India by conjunctive use of surface and groundwater
Optimal crop planning through the conjunctive use of surface and groundwater is necessary for the development of the agriculture-based Indian economy. In the present study a linear programming model was used to arrive at the optimal cropping pattern of a typical region between the Yamuna river and Eastern Yamuna canal. The optimal monthly allocation of canal and groundwater supplies was also determined. A sensitivity analysis was conducted upon the most important variables, namely, crop area, net individual benefit from various crops, canal and groundwater supplies, and their operation and maintenance costs.
