Abstract
New concepts of  -feasibility and  -efficiency of solutions for fuzzy mathematical programming problems are used, where  is a vector of distinct satisfaction degrees. Recently, a special kind of fuzzy mathematical programming entitled Fuzzy Flexible Linear programming (FFLP) is attracted many interests. Using the mentioned concepts, we propose a two-phase approach to solve FFLP. In the first phase, the original FFLP problem converts it to a Multi-Parametric Linear Programing (MPLP) problem, and then in phase II using the convenient optimal solution with the higher feasibility degree is concluded. Using this concept, we have solved the problem of the animal diet. In the process of milk production, the highest cost relates to animal feed. Based on reports provided by the experts, around seventy percent of dairy livestock costs included feed costs. In order to minimize the total price of livestock feed, according to the limits of feed sources in each region or season, and also the transportation and maintenance costs and ultimately milk price reduction, optimization of the livestock nutrition program is an essential issue. Because of the uncertainty and lack of precision in the optimal food ration done with existing methods based on linear programming, there is a need to use appropriate methods to meet this purpose. Therefore, in this study formulation of completely mixed nutrient diets of dairy cows is done by using a fuzzy linear programming in early lactation. Application of fuzzy optimization method and floating price make it possible to formulate and change the completely mixed diets with adequate safety margins. Therefore, applications of fuzzy methods in feed rations of dairy cattle are recommended to optimize the diets. Obviously, it would be useful to design suitable software, which provides the possibility of using floating prices to set feed rations by the use of fuzzy optimization method.

Abstract
Supplier selection is one of the main discussions in the Supply Chain. The issue of assigning purchase orders to suppliers that act differently in terms of quality, cast, services, etc. criteria is one of the significant concerns of purchase managers in the supply chain. To adopt an optimal decision in this regard is related to a multi-objective problem that the objectives are contradicting each other and have different importance and priority depending on the location. In practice, the existence of kind of ambiguity in explaining the information related to the problem constraints and complicated. In this regard, the emergence of Fuzzy set theory as a tool to describe such conditions besides presenting question model realistically can help to solve such problems well. Despite the importance of the model with the mentioned structure, unfortunately, few original works have been done in this field. As a result, in this paper, in addition to presenting a new multi-objective Fuzzy model being modelled based on assigning purchase order to suppliers in a supply chain a solution method is introduced based on using Fuzzy linear programming. To clarify solution process modelling and description, a case study is included related to selecting flour supplier for providing industrial bread of Khoshkar factory. The proposed model includes four objective functions:
- Aggregate costs of minimizing type,
- Services of maximizing type (such as packing, being faithful to promise, factory heath, discount, correct transportation, good relationships, honestly, etc.),
- Flour useful survival of maximizing type (regarding monthly flour buying by the factory),
- The purchased flour quality of maximizing type (concerning product type).
Especially in the solution process, a method is determined based on setting weight for each of the objectives concerning the major factory stockholders.
