Measuring technological gap ratio of wheat production using StoNED approach to metafrontier

The aim of this paper is to use the concept of the metafrontier function to study the determination of efficiency differentials and Technological Gap Ratio (TGR) on wheat production in Khorasan Razavi province. In this study, we used the metafrontier function and group frontier based on the concept of Stochastic Nonparametric Envelopment of Data analysis (StoNED). The data used in this stud...

Technical Efficiency Effects of Input Controls: Evidence from Australia’s Banana Prawn Fishery

Using two unbalanced panel data sets of vessels over the periods 1990-1996 and 19942000 the paper estimates stochastic production frontiers and evaluates the effects on individual technical efficiency of inputs controls in the northern banana prawn fishery of Australia. The results indicate that technical efficiency is decreasing in the gear input headrope length that was restricted until 1993 ...

Analysis of Technical Efficiency of Smallholder Cocoa Farmers in Cross River State, Nigeria

The technical efficiency involved in cocoa production in Cross River State was estimated using the stochastic frontier production function analysis. The effects of some selected socio- economic characteristics of the farmers on the efficiency indices were also estimated. The study relied upon primary data generated from interviewing cocoa farmers using a set of structured questionnaire. A multi...

استفاده از مدل ناپارامتریک تصادفی فراگیر داده‌ها (StoNED) برای محاسبه کارایی انرژی تولید گندم در استان مازندران

In current research, energy efficiency and technical efficiency of wheat farmers were calculated in Mazandaran province. To estimate technical efficiency the Stochastic Nonparametric Envelopment of Data (StoNED) was used. The model incorporating nonparametric data envelopment analysis model which contain the smoothness and concavity constraints with stochastic frontier analysis model. The requi...
