1. A farmer is looking to divide to plant different cultures. Traditionally, corn fields returned $3.50 per square meter. Oat fields returned $2.75 per square meter. Orchards produced revenues of $4.50 per square meter. The farmer has a land of 1 million square meters. In order to feed his farm animals, the cultivator must dedicate a minimum of 300,000 square meters to the culture of corn and oats together. However, since corn is more susceptible to long periods of drought, he does not want this culture to occupy more than 200,000 square meters. Lastly, he would like to allot the same amount of space to oats and orchards. a- Build a mathematical model to maximize the profit.
