HARVESTING OPTIMISATION AND POST-HOC ANALISYS

Description

formulated model of linear programming, which minimizes the total harvest and transport time for the observed farm company, is necessary for achieving the maximum profit from combine harvester rentals. Interdependent field operations have been mutually connected. The calculated optimal operating time showed that more human labour and machinery were used than necessary. This was later used for the post-hoc analysis which determined the profit from the combine harvester rentals for the observed period.
