Two sentences which confuse me...
1. 'Making decisions over the choice of resources to be used in production'
OR
'Making decisions over the choices of resources to be used in production'
should I use 'choice' or 'choices' in front of 'of resources' ?
2. 'Making investments in new plants and equipments'
OR
'Making investments on new plants and equipments'
should I use 'in' or 'on' in front of 'new plants....' ?

If there were two resources, I would certainly choose the first option, but I think that 'choice' can be considered a noncountable right, and would probably opt for the former anyway. 'Equipment' is a noncount noun also, and should have no 's'. 'Investment in ' is the standard.
