Abstract
In this paper we analyze a model which arises from considering manure and fertilizer aspects in the farm management modelling for cattle hus bandry. Modelling these aspects may lead to a multi-extremal problem w ith bilinear terms. Solution techniques for this problem are discussed and a specific branch and bound procedure is outlined. An example ill ustrates the multi-extremal structure of the problem and the solution methods mentioned.
