Evaluation Factors Affecting of Risk Production in Sistan Grape Growers by using Stochastic Frontier Approach

Due to agriculture is a risky activity and risk models is important in order to analyze the behavior of farmers, hence, in this study, the factors affecting risk-taking and risk aversion is the region grape growers. Data analysis was performed by using stochastic frontier. Data gathered by questionnaires at three counties of Zabol, Hirmand and Zahak at 265 grape farmers in crop year of 2011-201...

Efficiency of Rice Farming Households in Vietnam: A DEA with Bootstrap and Stochastic Frontier Application

This study estimates technical efficiency obtained from both Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and stochastic frontier approach using household survey data for rice farming households in Vietnam. A bootstrap method is used to provide statistical precision of DEA estimator. Bootstrap methods have not commonly used in empirical analysis despite being an important statistical tool for improving the ...
