dc.description.abstract | Analysis and evaluation of agricultural systems use these criteria: energy, economic,
agronomy, environmental conservation and time. Because of time importance indicator for
reducing timeliness cost, project scheduling techniques are used. Graphical Evaluation and
Review Technique (GERT) is widely used as a tool for managing projects. In this research
GERT Networks were used and operations scheduling of sugarcane production (land
preparation, planting and preserve operations) in Khuzestan province of Iran as a case study
was analysed, by using WinQsb software. Critical activities, events and path were determined.
The earliest project completion time is 214.03 days. The results show a high potential for
operations scheduling of sugarcane production. | en_US |
