On an Intelligent System to Plan Agricultural Operations

Abstract

This paper focuses on the design and implementation of an intelligent system for planning agricultural operations. The aim of this intelligent system is to help the user select the appropriate resources for a set of operations, as well as to define and schedule the sequence of those operations. The practical background is discussed, with descriptions of the solution space of agricultural applications and the way they can be restrained, through a set of assumptions for minimizing the computing effort. Furthermore, results are provided and discussed. The next steps are included in the paper’s conclusion.
