Abstract
Present paper deals with a multi-objective transportation problem. This problem has equality type constraints and some non-commensurable and conflicting objectives. The above objectives are fuzzy in nature. The problem has been solved by three methods using fuzzy programming approach. A numerical example is also given to compare the results obtained by different methods.
