| Описание: | This article presents an optimization model for raw material purchase and sales allocation, developed using linear programming techniques to enhance the performance of a company in the agro-industrial sector. The study focuses on the production of concentrated fruit juices, which is carried out using two daily-operated production and packaging lines with different capacities. By analysing monthly machinery capacity and efficiency requirements, fruit supply availability, and customer demand, the proposed model significantly improved operational efficiency and positively impacted the company’s profitability. |
