Abstract

Two types of economic effectiveness and two types of economic effciency, as well as three types of indicators as nutritional quality criteria were used in this paper for ranking certain winter lettuce growing technologies. Four certain types of growing technologies of winter lettuce in greenhouses were ranked by two multi-attribute decision making methods. Results of ranking for both methods, SAW and TOPSIS are shown. Alternatives were ranked by three different scenarios with different weight coeffcients. The type of growing technology with combination of mulching + agro textile is the best ranked one according both methods and all scenarios.The SAW method showed more sensitivity on weight coeffcients changes than TOPSIS.
