Abstract

Right from 1954 researchers started analyzing the applications of Operations Research in agriculture. Agriculture makes provision for food and is vital for the GDP of India with the ever growing population. This paper uses Assignment Problems to allot crops to states based on secondary data (to deduce a trend) that shows the crop production of all the states of India. It represents a methodology which can be used to identify which crops should be predominantly grown in which state. It can help to maximize the production of crops in the country, maximize the profits and reduce the land usage in the process.
