Topological Optimum Approach for Improving Indicators for Agricultural Sustainability by Waseem Asghar Khan

“…Similarly, the area may be reduced by 3.9425506 percent in 2010 to attain a given optimum crop production topology, by 4.0198591 percent in 2011 to achieve the same amount of crop production, and by 1.0621519 percent in 2012 to attain the desired level of crop output. The topology of crop production could increase by 5.1334182 percent while retaining quality, according to the variable return to scale (VRS) topology while maintaining the same assigned area. …”
