Abstract :
In this paper, a combination of neural networks and genetic algorithms have been used to predict and maximize lemon grass oil production. The best combinations could be assessed for N+P2O5+ZnSO4 (Kgha-1) as 89.03 + 60.00 + 40.65, 114.84 + 60.00+33.39, 120.00 + 54.84 + 42.10 and 120.00 + 60.00+45.00 respectively for maximum oil production. Contribution of each nutrient combinations is also identified.
