Agri-Match Simulator
The deck's most original idea: match farmers' ranked crop choices to zone demand the way doctors are matched to hospitals (Gale–Shapley; Dr. Prahlada's EFCAS, after the US NRMP/ERAS residency match). Try it on a model Chitradurga hobli.
Farmers — ranked preferences
| Farmer | Ha | Grade | 1 | 2 | 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
District quotas (hectares)
Crops accept the highest farm-grade applicants that fit the quota; the rest fall to their next choice.
