Abstract:
There are fifteen sugar mills in Bangladesh under Bangladesh Sugar and Food Industries Corporation (BSFIC). But most of all the mills are being run with losses. For this reason the researchers have taken an initiative to measure the relative efficiencies of individual small size sugar mills as well as large size sugar mills in Bangladesh and to set a target of minimum utilization of inputs in order to maximize production level compared to relatively efficient sugar mills. Besides, an attempt has been taken to provide suggestions to improve efficiencies of the inefficient sugar mills. The study

Abstract In this article, we conduct a productive efficiency analysis using the two major methods: stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) and data envelopment analysis (DEA). First, we demonstrate the steps and assumptions involved in SFA and DEA, and highlight their strengths and weaknesses. Then we apply them to the case of bleached softwood kraft pulp production to derive technical and allocative efficiency measures for 102 mills in the world. We find that in general, the SFA cost-efficiency levels are higher than their DEA counterparts, and much of the cost inefficiency is caused by inappropri

These approaches are used to provide a review of frontier conceptual measurement, strength and limitation of the parametric and non-parametric models. Stochastic frontier production function of Cobb-Douglas type was utilized for the estimation. The function was estimated using the maximum likelihood estimation technique.

Abstract The physical environment of farming systems is rarely considered when conducting farm level efficiency analysis, which is likely to lead to bias of performance measurements based on benchmarking methods such as Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). We incorporate variations of the physical environment (rainfall and length of growing season) through the specifications of the linear programming in DEA to investigate performance measurement bias. The derived technical efficiency estimates are obtained using a sub-vector DEA which ensures farms are compared in a homogenous environment (i.e. ac

Abstract Farm productivity in most developing countries remains low, hence the need to enhance technical efficiency (TE) of producers. This study evaluates the TE of maize production in rural Ghana, using primary data from a survey of smallholder producers. A two-stage double bootstrap data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach was used to assess TE and its determinants. The results revealed a bias-corrected mean TE of 68% (as opposed to 81% using the traditional DEA approach). Hence, with the prevailing technology and current input levels, farmers can increase their TE of maize production by 32

Abstract:
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a popular tool to determine technical efficiency of agricultural production. One issue that arises in some nonparametric frameworks is the heterogenous endowment with determinate factors, such as agroclimatic conditions. Environmental factors clearly lie outside of the sphere of influence of the decision-maker and pose natural limits to increasing efficiency and productivity of agricultural production. Calls for rationalization or better allocation of production inputs might thus not be adequate if concerned studies do not properly account for exogeneous fact
