The total factor productivity (TFP) of a multiple-output multiple-input firm can be defined as the ratio of an aggregate output to an aggregate input. With this definition, index numbers that measure changes in TFP can be expressed as the ratio of an output quantity index to an input quantity index. This paper uses the term multiplicatively complete to describe TFP index numbers that are constr...

The agricultural sector in developing countries is one of the most vulnerable sectors to climate change and water scarcity. Iran Middle Eastern country facing a growing crisis. Rafsanjan county, located province Kerman, losing its pistachio orchards shortages change. modernisation irrigation methods transfer from other regions have been main strategies taken by governmental authorities. lack su...

the purpose of this study is calculate the rate of total factor productivity (tfp) growth  of rice varieties for different provinces of  iran and then breakdown it to the changes in a technology, management efficiency and scale efficiency. for this purpose we use the nonparametric method of comprehensive data analysis and malmquist productivity index. the used data include the rice varieties pr...

The aim of this research is to investigate China’s urban green total factor productivity (TFP) under the background of progressing urbanization and intensifying environmental pollution, and found out its main influencing factors. In this paper, green TFP of 285 prefecture-level cities in China from 2005 to 2012 was estimated through Malmquist productivity index. Results showed that the annual g...

Previous research shows that technical progress at the industry level, measured by sectoral TFP growth, is more localized in continental European countries than in Anglo-Saxon countries. We use EU KLEMS data sets to decompose sectoral TFP for nine European countries by means of a Malmquist approach, in order to separate technical change. Applying Harberger diagrams, we describe the sectoral pat...

The purpose of this paper is to study relative developments in total factor productivity (TFP) growth between the Australian and New Zealand traded goods sectors during the 1975–1998 period. Particular attention is paid to the effect of the mid-1980s economic reforms on overall productivity and efficiency change (ECH). We use an approach that decomposes TFP growth into an ECH and a technical ch...
