Decision Making in Uncertain Rural Scenarios by means of Fuzzy TOPSIS Method

Decision Making in Uncertain Rural Scenarios by means of Fuzzy TOPSIS Method

A great deal of uncertain information which is difficult to quantify is taken into account by farmers and experts in the enterprise when making decisions. We are interested in the problems of the implementation of a rabbit-breeding farm. One of the first decisions to be taken refers to the design or...
