Mathematical modelling using non-linear programming

Linear programming applications cannot identify near-feasible solutions that in many instances may be adequate for the user and morecost-effective. In this article non-linear programming is highlighted as being perhaps of better use to formulate the diet of an animal. It gives the benefit of simultaneous inclusion of different kinds of nutrient ingredients, satisfying the feeding standards.
