Sustainability analysis in water resources management in agricultural sector using fractional programming ,case study: Kerman province

Sustainability has include socio-economic and bio-ecological dimensions or attributes. This paper presents a conceptual framework for quantifying sustainability in water on the basis of economic theory. The conceptual model is implemented using fractional programming, which is a nonlinear programming method. Fractional programming enables multi- attribute performance to be assessed without having to specify any prior weights for the various attributes; it has many advantages for the measurement of sustainability. The paper demonstrates theoretically and empirically that nonlinear programming methods allow the potential for improvements in sustainability to be accurately assessed and can provide normative guidance for management.
