Abstract

The use of a large-scale LP agricultural model for supporting the policy design process is presented. The model determines the agricultural crop and livestock specialization in a detailed, disaggregated form, i.e. distributed over subregions, properties, soil qualities, technologies, etc. and basic financial and material flows, all in given natural conditions, e.g. soil qualities, and available resources, e.g. manpower, machinery, capital, etc. The policy is meant in terms of imposed price structure and resource distribution. The use of information obtainable from both primal and dual solution is shown. The results of implementation for a region in Poland are presented.
