TL;DRAbstract

This investigation describes a set of models to support the decision of a citrus variety selection for an agricultural enterprise located at Porto Ferreira/SP. To achieve this goal were applied the Linear Programming and Expected Return Analysis techniques. By the use of three linear programming models, one of them developed on Integer Programming, were considered seven citrus varieties as decision variables and three constraints: total investment in agro-chemicals, labor and area; the models provided suggestions of land occupation. By the analysis of historical information regarding Citrus production in So Paulo Estate, was developed a Expected Return Analysis for the Citrus production in So Paulo Estate and for the enterprise as well, focused on return on investment. The results obtained from this investigation are important to describe a methodology for supporting the investor decision making process in small agricultural business, due to the easy application of the techniques.
