3.2.7 Economic Impact of Smallholder Dairy Technology in Uganda at the Farm Level (East Africa Farm Level Economic Methodology and Analysis)
ثبت نشده
چکیده
To address technology impact at the household level, farms were selected in two broad agro-ecological zones, Kampala and Highland. The Kampala zone was delineated as a “new” region with a substantial milkshed that was not delineated with the Kenya agro-ecological extrapolation. Since the “Horticultural” zone and Kenya dominated the landscape where dairying occurred outside of the Kampala milkshed, all Kenya extrapolations were “lumped” and farms assigned to a “Highland” zone.

متن کاملEconomic Efficiency of Smallholder in Iran: Adjusted for Market Distortion
To measure an unbiased farm-specific efficiency of individual dairy farmers, a shadow-price profit frontier adjusted for market distortion was applied to a sample of 860 Iranian small intensive dairy farms surveyed in 2005-2006. This measure was then compared with that of unadjusted measure that assumes undistorted market. A multiple general linear model (GLM) technique was applied to the data ...
