Bi-Objective Optimization Model Based on Profit and CO2 Emissions for Pig Deliveries to the Abattoir

This paper presents a bi-objective model for optimizing pig deliveries to the abattoir accounting for total revenue and CO2 emissions. Fattening farms house the most important stage in pig production, and operations on farms must be coordinated with the rest of the pig supply chain when batch manage...
