Abstract
A multiple objective programming (MOP) problem was considered to select the best plan for small, medium and large farms in Punjab. Different farm plans were proposed by giving different weights to five objectives, viz. minimization of energy input, maximization of gross returns, minimization of capital borrowing, minimization of labour hiring and minimization of risk for availability of energy inputs. Out of 10 farm plans, the farm plan with weights δ2 = 20 and δj = 0.001 for j = 1,3,4,5 in terms of the maximum amount of gross returns was found to be the best for small, medium and large farms.
