Sažetak
Selecting a tractor is one of the most complex investment decisions an agricultural producer faces. There are numerous types of tractors on the market, each differing in technical, economic, and ecological characteristics. The aim of this research is to demonstrate how multi-criteria analysis methods can aid in this decision-making process, using a practical example of selecting an optimal tractor for the Myzeqe area in Albania. In this study, a decision-making model was developed based on a hybrid fuzzy methodology, combining the fuzzy LOPCOW (Logarithmic Percentage Change-Driven Objective Weighting) and fuzzy MABAC (Multi-Attributive Border Approximation Area Comparison) methods. The findings show that the determination of criterion weights is less crucial, with the T15 tractor exhibiting the best overall indicators. This research primarily contributes to developing a methodology in agriculture that enhances production outcomes.
