The success or failure of an investment project in fruit production also depends on the selection of the fruit species and variety. When selecting the variety for the creation of a new orchard it is necessary to perform the synthesis of different data and to look at all aspects of the investment. This paper presents the application of DEX multi-criteria decision making. The model was applied on 7 varieties of plum from the western Balkans region that were assessed by experts from "The association" of agricultural economists of Western Balkans" using the Delphi method. By applying this model it has been shown that the "Stanley" is the most suitable for starting a new orchard while the varieties "Čačanska ljepotica" and "Čačanska rodna" are also very suitable for starting new fruit orchards and they have also received the value attribute "very acceptable". Using this model all strong and weak sides of the observed plum variety were shown. For the final selection it is necessary to conduct research at a specific micro location where all characteristics of that area would also be taken into consideration.
