Development of an Intelligent Decision Support System for Natural Rubber Agroindustry Using the Fuzzy Analytic Network Process (ANP)

Abstract

Abstract Indonesia is one of the world’s largest natural rubber producers. One industry that is closely related to environmental problems is the natural rubber agroindustry. The higher the production of natural rubber, the higher the impact on the environment. The purpose of this study is to choose an alternative to increase the production of natural rubber cultivation by considering the impact on the environment. The research method employed consists of several stages, namely determining the value of fuzzy membership of expert judgments, making an ANP structure, and comparing calculation results. The results of the alternative selection using the fuzzy ANP show that utilization of the waste from the cultivation process is the best alternative with the highest value of 1,010.
