this study investigates issues on efficiency and elasticity of broiler production in peninsular malaysia. data from 296 broiler farms were subjected to sfa, dea and bootstrap methods for technical efficiency; translog and tobit regression analyses to estimate elasticity of production and determinants of efficiency respectively in broiler production. we found that farmers produce mean efficiency...

this article is going to survey the relationship between culture and efficiency in insurance companies including asia, iran, alborz and dana as well as their branches. in order to measure the efficiency, data envelopment analysis (dea) has been used. in a way that the amount of efficiency in respect to input and output of branches has been computed, then by using the amounts, the weighted avera...

analyzing efficiency in each economic sector to adopt policies for optimal use of production factors and avoid wasting resources is important. in this study, in order to have a more comprehensive evaluation of the performance of each unit, efficiency of broiler firms was measured using bounded data envelopment analysis which determines position of each unit relative to efficient and inefficient...

This paper attempts to examine, using data envelopment analysis, the productivity performance trends of the Indian commercial banks for the period: 1997-98 – 2004-05. Our broad empirical findings are indicative in many ways. First, the increasing average annual trends in technical efficiency for all ownership groups indicate an affirmative gesture about the effect of the reform process on the ...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a non-parametric method for evaluating the relative technical efficiency for each member of a set of peer decision making units (dmus) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. the original dea models use positive input and output variables that are measured on a ratio scale, but these models do not apply to the variables in which interval scale data can appe...
