Abstract

This work introduces a new MILP mathematical model for the poultry supply chain, which simultaneously addresses two main tasks: (1) the assignment and scheduling of the vehicles devoted to transport poultry from breeding farms to the slaughterhouse, and (2) the scheduling of the operations at the slaughterhouse. A set of reduced size instances is solved with CPLEX to illustrate the results obtained, although the model complexity prevents from obtaining feasible solutions in some cases.
