This paper presents the capabilities and limitations of a microcomputer linear programming package. The solution algorithm is a version of the revised simplex. Rapid problem entry, user ease of operation, sensitivity analyses on objective function and right hand sides are advantages. A problem size of 150 activities and 64 constraints can be solved in present form. Due to problem size, limitations and lack of parametric and integer programming routines, this package is thought to have the most value in teaching applications and research problems in the smaller size categories. |

Control of salinity offers an opportunity to increase agricultural production along the Red River of Texas and Oklahoma. However, absolute benefits and the distribution of those benefits are sensitive to the crop yield effect of SAR (sodium absorption ratio). The effect of SAR on crop yield is not well defined. This study estimates agricultural benefits of a chloride control project as $65 million, not considering any SAR effect and $117 million with an SAR effect. Further, distribution of benefits was reversed between the eastern and western portions of the study area. |
