This paper proposes a global cost Malmquist productivity index, new cost Malmquist productivity index, that is circular and that gives a single measure of productivity change. The index is inspired by the global Malmquist productivity index as extended to productivity measurement. Decomposition of the proposed cost Malmquist productivity index is presented. Numerical results are presented for a...

Purpose: The aim of the study was to measure and analyse productivity level agricultural activity in 25 European Union countries factors influencing this level. Approach/Methodology/Design: data covers years 2009-2019 obtained from EUROSTAT database. Aggregated Hicks-Moorsteen TFP total indices were used for measurement analysis. On basis average level, grouped into groups based on analysis the...

maintaining soil productivity is one of the key factors in sustainable agriculture. soil erosion reduces soil productivity over a long-term period of time. therefore, determining soil erosion tolerance is necessary for sustainable agriculture production. in this study, the long-term effects of erosion on soil productivity in the typical kohin watershed were evaluated. the soil productivity inde...

the present study used different categories of organized sector manufacturing industries pooled data for the periods of 1981-82 and 2007-08 in haryana state (india). the present undertaking seeks to analyze the inter-temporal and inter-industry comparison of total factor productivity (tfp) measured by malmquist productivity index - an application of dea which calculates the indices of tfp and i...

This paper focuses on the role of absorptive capacity in determining whether or not domestic firms benefit from productivity spillovers from FDI using establishment level data for the UK. We allow for different effects of FDI on establishments located at different quantiles of the productivity distribution by using conditional quantile regression. Overall, while there is some heterogeneity in r...

the productivity change of a decision making unit (dmu) between two time periods can be evaluated by the malmquist productivity index. in this study, we propose a method to compute the malmquist productivity index in several time periods (from the first to the last periods) on interval data in data envelopment analysis (dea). then, the obtained malmquist productivity index is compared with malm...
