Transhipment problem

Shafais Fruit Company contracts with growers in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York to purchase grapes. The grapes are processed into juice at the farms and stored in refrigerated vats. Then the juice is shipped to two plants, where it is processed into bottled grape juice and frozen concentrate. The juice and concentrate are then transported to three food warehouses/distribution centers. The transportation costs per ton from the farms to the plants and from the plants to the distributors, and the supply at the farms and demand at the distribution centers are summarized in the following tables:

Plant

Farm 4. Indiana 5. Georgia Supply (1,000 tons)

What is the total supply? _____________

What is the total Demand? _____________Is this a balanced or an unbalanced model? ____________What is the difference between a balanced and an unbalanced model? Define the objective function(Z):Define the constraints:Determine the optimal shipments from farms to plants to distribution centers to minimize total transportation costs.
