A Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Approach for Country-Wise Ranking in Sugarcane Production
摘要
Sugarcane is a major commercial crop grown in many countries around the world. It is an important source of income for millions of farmers and workers involved in the sugar industry. The cultivation and processing of sugarcane also create jobs in other industries such as transportation, manufacturing, and retail. Additionally, sugarcane is used not only for sugar production but also for biofuel production, making it a versatile and valuable crop. In this article, we will explore the current state of sugarcane production worldwide, including the top-producing countries. The country-wise ranking of sugarcane is determined with respect to five criteria using Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) methodology. The final ranking is compared through three MCDM methods viz. VIKOR, TOPSIS, WSM.
