A sustainable agri-food supply chain network design: A hybrid a Robust-Fuzzy approach

The unorganized structure and uncertain demand in traditional agri-fresh food supply chain (AFSC) cause low profits for farmers and high wastage of agricultural produce. Because of this, this paper formulates a mixed integer multi-transportation nonlinear programming model to design four levels of the supply chain under uncertain conditions. The results obtained from this model under uncertain conditions compared with the results of this model under certain conditions. In addition, this model solved in the state of uncertainty with two fuzzy and robust methods with three possibilities, necessity and credibility measures and a comparison of results is provided.
