This article sets out the methodology for evaluation of expert opinions on agricultural structure of sown areas that is one of main factors constituting food security. For this purpose, the theory and instruments of fuzzy Z-numbers have been employed. The Z-number theory opened a new window of opportunities for many applications, especially in the areas of computation with probabilities and events stated in natural language. From this perspective, Z-numbers theory is an effective tool to make synthesis and analysis of expert opinions. In this paper, we try to determine the best case among expert opinions. Firstly, on the basis of subjective expert evaluations, corresponding Z-numbers are constructed. Then, in order to establish the medium version of expert opinions, addition and averaging operations on Z-numbers have been carried out. As a result, the intermediate of the expert opinions is assessed, then the best case is selected which may be accepted as the desired agricultural structure of sown areas of cereal and leguminous plants in Azerbaijan for the upcoming years.
