Title:A Novel Integrated Expert System Modelling Approachfor Sugarcane Management
Abstract:Statistics  in  Pakistan  show  that  sugarcane,  cultivated  in  tropical  and  subtropical  areas, produced1.9  billion  tons  in  2020,  achieving  the  highest  position  in  the  world.  The existing practices and processes of sugarcane management are lacking in efficiencyand effectiveness,whichare  time-consuming  and  wasteful,  wastage  of  money  with  improper management,creating issues of conflicts among farmers, workers,and mill administration. To overcome this significant concern,thereis a dire need foran intelligent management system that could integrate the various tools, techniques,and technologies to achieve the objectives of  adequate  information  for  making  rational  decisions  by  minimizing  time,  cost,and optimizingthe utilization of resources. The study includes:firstly, acquiring the Knowledge about the problem domain,  i.e., Sugarcane Management System’s key  factors, tools,and techniques,as  well  as  SWOT  (Strengths  Weakness Opportunity  Threat)  analysis  to  identify the gap. Secondly,to analyze and find priorities of the key factors and criteria weights through AHP  (Analytical  Hierarchy  Process).  Thirdly,  to  model  the  whole  knowledge  in  different forms,like Decision Table, Weight Allocation Table, Decision Tree,and Conceptual Model etc.  Finally,  developing  a  prototype  Rule-Based  Expert  System  named  ESFSMS  (Expert System for Sugarcane Management System) and testing the proposed model through ESFSMS. The  final  report  shows that the  aggregate  weight  of  all  the  factors  equals  0.9995,which  is nearly equal to 1.00, i.e., the goal. It is limited to a few factors,which can be extended in further research studies and the usage of modern techniques
