Interregional Comparison of Agricultural Productivity Growth, Technical Progress, and Efficiency Change in China’s Agriculture: A Nonparametric Index Approach

نویسنده

  • Martin Spitzer
چکیده

A linear programming technique is used to decompose agricultural total factor productivity change in China’s provinces during the period 1985 to 1994. The method allows the decomposition of productivity growth into two mutually exclusive and exhaustive parts: technological change and changes in pure technical efficiency. The decomposition provides a natural way to differentiate innovations from catching up phenomena in China’s agriculture.

Total Factor Productivity Growth, Technical Change and Technical Efficiency Change in Asian Economies: Decomposition Analysis

The aim of this paper is to analyze total factor productivity (TFP) growth and its components in Asian countries applying Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) to the time series data of 44 Asian countries from 2000 to 2010. Using Battese and Coelli approach, TFP is divided into technical efficiency change and technical change. TFP decomposition using SFA method for the years 1998 to 2007 indicate...

کاربرد روش تحلیل فراگیر داده‌ها درتحلیل رشد بهره‌وری کل عوامل تولید در زراعت پنبه ایران

Malmquist index computed by data envelopment analysis approach was used to estimate the total factor productivity (TFP) growth in cotton production in Iran during 1983-2001. By dividing this index in the two components, technological change and technical efficiency change, two major factors of productivity growth in cotton production were analyzed. Data was obtained from production cost system ...
