## 4. Mathematical Optimization Formulation

#### Decision Variables
- Let \( x_{ij} \) be a binary decision variable where \( x_{ij} = 1 \) if Farm \( j \) is participating in Competition \( i \), and \( x_{ij} = 0 \) otherwise.

#### Objective Function
Maximize the total number of competitions won, which is calculated as the sum of the products of win coefficients and participation indicators:

\[
\text{Maximize } Z = \sum_{i,j} c_{ij} \times x_{ij}
\]

Where:
- \( c_{ij} \) is the win coefficient for Farm \( j \) in Competition \( i \).

Data Source Verification:
- \( c_{ij} \) values are sourced from the `win_coefficients` table, specifically `win_coefficients.coefficient`.

#### Constraints
1. **Livestock Allocation Constraint**: The total number of competitions a farm can participate in should not exceed the livestock allocation threshold for each farm. Let \( L_j \) be the livestock allocation threshold for Farm \( j \).

\[
\sum_{i} x_{ij} \leq L_j \quad \forall j
\]

2. **Binary Participation Constraint**: Each decision variable \( x_{ij} \) must be binary.

\[
x_{ij} \in \{0, 1\} \quad \forall i, j
\]

Data Source Verification:
- The participation decision \( x_{ij} \) corresponds to `participation.is_participating`.
- The livestock allocation threshold \( L_j \) is a business configuration parameter, not explicitly provided in the data but assumed to be known for each farm.

This formulation provides a complete linear optimization model that can be solved using standard linear or mixed-integer programming techniques to determine the optimal participation strategy for maximizing the number of competitions won by the farm.

## 8. Cross-Solver Analysis and Final Recommendation

### Solver Results Comparison

| Solver | Status | Optimal Value | Execution Time | Decision Variables | Retry Attempt |
|--------|--------|---------------|----------------|-------------------|---------------|
| Gurobipy | ERROR | N/A | 0.17s | N/A | 4 |
| Docplex | ERROR | N/A | 1.16s | N/A | 4 |
| Pyomo | ERROR | N/A | 1.86s | N/A | 4 |

### Solver Consistency Analysis
**Result**: Solvers produced inconsistent results
**Inconsistent Solvers**: gurobipy, docplex, pyomo
**Potential Issues**:
- Missing win coefficients in the data source
- Data integrity issues across all solvers
- Potential misalignment between data and model requirements
**Solver Retry Summary**: gurobipy: 4 attempts, docplex: 4 attempts, pyomo: 4 attempts

### Final Recommendation
**Confidence Level**: LOW
**Preferred Solver(s)**: multiple
**Reasoning**: All solvers encountered the same data issue, indicating that the problem is not solver-specific but rather data-related. Once data issues are resolved, any of the solvers could be used.

### Business Interpretation
**Overall Strategy**: The optimization could not be completed due to data issues. No reliable decision can be made without resolving these issues.
**Objective Value Meaning**: The optimal objective value would represent the maximum number of competitions won by the farms, given the constraints.
**Resource Allocation Summary**: Resources (livestock) should be allocated to maximize competition wins, but current data issues prevent this analysis.
**Implementation Recommendations**: Verify and correct the win coefficients data. Ensure all required data is available and correctly formatted before rerunning the optimization.
