This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for this book had its origins in a series of working papers prepared for the Georgia Transportation Planning Land Use Model project. The book is not an official report on that project and does not necessarily reflect the views of the Georgia Department of Transportation. Mrs. Catherine Bennett, Systems Designer, assisted in the special run of the Georgia State Econometric Model in Chapter 2. Mr. Richard Burns and Miss Louise Shedd, research assistant!i, aided in data assembly and analysis for Chapters 3 and 5. The authors wish to express their particular thanks to Mrs. Dallas Gonzales, who provided editorial assistance, and to Mrs. Deborah Conklin, who typed the final manuscript.

This book was released on 2011-07-15 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transportation costs are typically constitute the largest percentages of the total cost in the production process of agricultural industries. This study aims to apply the hub-andspoke system to the agricultural transportation and distribution networks of Thai agricultural products in order to reduce transportation costs and to investigate the location of facilities within the shrimp industry by varying parameters. Hubs serve as collection and switching points in the system and transportation flows will be consolidated in the hub links. The concentration in the hub network leads to economies of scale, and for this reason the transportation cost rate will be reduced. In the study, central markets for shrimp are referred to as hubs. The hub location models are divided in uncapacitated hub location models and hub location models with minimal capacity. These models are stated as an integer linear programming models. The objective functions of both models are identical. They include the costs of direct and indirect transportation as well as the construction costs of hubs. While evaluating transportation costs, the opportunity cost reflected in the perishable nature of the agricultural products is accounted for as well. The rates of the opportunity cost are calculated as the difference between averaging shrimp prices of direct trade with the factory and trade within shrimp markets. The difference of the two models lies in the constraints of minimal capacity. To solve the hub location problems, the sum of the costs is optimized through a genetic algorithm. This research employs secondary data from 2006 until 2008 based on information of the Department of Internal Trade and the Department of Fisheries of Thailand. The computational results reveal that the central markets are more likely to be established in potential locations if the saving rate of transportation costs is increased, according to the efficiency of management and vehicles within the network. Furthermore, the change of the opportunity costs has no effect on the locations of the shrimp central markets. It only has impact on the total costs of transportation. Finally, the results reveal the conflict between the official supporting policy for the shrimp central markets and the efficiency of shrimp central markets. In summary, the hub and spoke system is an important tool for distribution improvement, thus reducing the transportation costs for Thai agricultural products. Therefore, establishing more central markets in Thailand helps to improve the competiveness of Thailand’s agricultural sector. Nowadays, however there are not enough shrimp central markets, thus the central markets should be more expanded within Thailand.
