Learning is often utilized by multi-agent systems which can deal with complex problems by means of their decentralized approach. With a number of learning methods available, a need for their comparison arises. This paper presents initial comparison results for selected algorithms (SARSA, Naïve Bayes, C4.5 and Ripper), which are obtained based on the new multi-dimensional Farmer-Pest problem domain, which is suitable for benchmarking learning algorithms. The results show that supervised learning algorithms can be used to generate agent strategy. It appears that for simple environment reinforcement learning algorithm together with Naïve Bayes learning gives best results. Although, in a difficult environment, C4.5 and Ripper are the best
