A linear programming model was developed considering two specific objectives viz., net benefit maximization and optimal area allocation. Land available, water available, and food requirement are the constraints considered for model. The model was run at 70 per cent, 80 per cent, 90 per cent and 100 per cent availability levels of storage's excluding different water losses. The optimal cropping pattern indicated that net benefit and area are increased as water availability level increases. For Right bank canal of 965 ha ICA at 70 per cent, 80 per cent, 90 per cent and 100 per cent water...
