5 Results and Discussion
The payoff matrix determination for the five objectives and the Real Values
achievement for the objective function were estimated for the Azorean dairy farm
typology I, whose results are shown in Tables
10.1
,
10.2
, and
10.3
for each group
(second and third step of the methodology). The algorithm began by optimizing
each objective individually subject to the same constraints set.
In Group I—medium intensive grazing systems (Table
10.1
), the objectives of
target of seasonality labor (EST), and total labor minimization (DMMO) were
complementary. That means they have similar values (7,823,000
to seasonality
€
and 7,804,000
for hired target of total labor minimization). It is observed also in
Table
10.1
that Real Value is quite similar to seasonality and target of DMMO, and
this can mean that Azorean dairy farms in their decision processes include the labor
rationality.
