Game-theoretic analysis of competitive agri-biomass supply chain

This research aims to explore the optimal strategies for managing competitive agri-biomass supply chain. First a game model of a supply chain consisting of one supplier and two buyers is used to develop the optimal strategies for the supplier and buyers as well as the total equilibrium profit. Then, the industrial coexistence conditions are analyzed and the effects of the model parameters on game equilibrium are evaluated. Finally, the methodology is illustrated with a case study in China.
