Models of the optimal distribution of fertilizers and vehicles in grain production

Abstract

The paper considers models of optimal distribution of fertilizers and vehicles in grain production. To ensure the delivery of fertilizer to the destination for the chemical treatment agriculture, the optimal distribution of fertilizers in grain production was solved. On the basis of optimal models, the needs of vehicles for servicing these works are determined. As calculations show, the cost of acquiring machines and operating costs can be reduced by 20-30% due to the correct selection and use of equipment. This made it possible to distribute mineral fertilizers between farms in accordance with the characteristics of their soils. With the help of ground equipment, mineral fertilizers are applied, chemical pest and plant disease control is carried out, weed vegetation is destroyed in grain crops. The optimal plan for the use of machine and tractor fleet can only be determined using optimization methods, since the composition of machines and tractors and their possible use have such a large number of options that it is almost impossible to simply sort them out and select the best. Further, the algorithm and the solution to the problem of optimal distribution of vehicles in grain production are considered.
