A Linear Programming Algorithm for Determining Mean-Gini Efficient Farm Plans

A linear programming algorithm is presented for determination of farm plans that are efficient under the mean-Gini criterion. Use of the algorithm is illustrated by applying it to a standard problem from the literature. The set of efficient plans is compared with those based on meanvariance and MOTAD analysis of the same problem.
