| Abstract | |
This Thesis consists of investigating a control paradigm for coordinated management of agricultural resources in a context where a number of production units, which seek the maximum economic return in each production cycle, are articulated to guarantee environmental, social and economic development. For this, a two-level control scheme is proposed, where at the lower level, optimal control problems with constraints are solved for each of the production units, and on the upper level, a new Model Predictive Control (MPC) paradigm is used to promote global coordination to ensure long-term environmental sustainability. The novelty of this MPC scheme over conventional ones is that the associated dynamic system model is not defined a priori, but arises from the management and control decisions made by each of the production units. Besides the study of some important properties for this problem formulation, it is demonstrated the existence of a global solution that results from the convergence of the global scheme, as well as of its asymptotic stability.
