This paper presents an application of fuzzy set theory to goal programming problems in fuzzy environment. A fuzzy goal programming model for an unbalanced transportation problem with multiple fuzzy goals having equal importance is considered. To supply the food grains from different sources to various locations in an optimal manner, a numerical example with three different fuzzy goals, namely, demand, transportation cost, and total deterioration of goods during transportation, is presented to illustrate the methodology.
