Abstract:

Abstract. The stochastic frontier has two error components, namely errors originating from random errors and errors originating from other factors than can be controlled, namely inefficiency errors. The Stochastic Frontier Analysis model is an extension of the deterministic frontier model developed by Aigner and Chu (1968) in Coelli et al (1998). Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) is one of the best known techniques for determining efficiency. So to overcome the level of efficiency of a company researchers will use the stochastic frontier with the Cobb-Douglas production function model. The pr

Abstract This research provides estimates of average industry and firm-specific technical efficiency using an econometric stochastic frontier production function for individual firms operating in the southern U.S. pulpwood harvesting industry in both 1979 and 1987. The stochastic frontier production function is capable of distinguishing deviations from the frontier due to uncontrollable stochastic elements, as well as provide a pure measure of technical efficiency. Results indicate that mean industry technical efficiency was nearly constant at 60% in both periods while frontier technical chang

Abstract:

The parametric and non-parametric frontier approach is the famous frontier measurement efficiency in economic productivity. Many researches on economics-based has focused on efficiency. Basically, efficiency comprises two important components. First is technical efficiency and second is allocative efficiency. Combination of technical and allocative efficiency called as economic efficiency. In order to measure both components of efficiency, parametric and non-parametric approaches have been utilized to either estimate or calculate the efficiency frontier.

Abstract:

Parametric production frontier functions are frequently used in stochastic frontier models, but there do not seem to be any empirical test statistics for the plausibility of this application. In this paper, we develop procedures to test whether or not the parametric production frontier functions are suitable. Toward this aim, we developed two test statistics based on local smoothing and an empirical process, respectively. Residual-based wild bootstrap versions of these two test statistics are also suggested. The distributions of technical inefficiency and the noise term are not specified, whic

Two models of technical inefficiency with a stochastic production frontier are considered in this paper.

Abstract:

The research was conducted to determine maximum likelihood estimate of stochastic frontier production of small, medium and large-scale cowpea farmers in Bauchi and Gombe States of Nigeria. The major focus was on socio-economic attributes of the small, medium and large-scale cowpea farmers as well as the effects on their efficiency. A total of 323 small, medium and large scale cowpea farmers (i.e., 165 for small, 76 for medium and 82 for large) were selected using ballot box in 10 local government areas of the two States of the study area.

Abstract:

Production efficiency is a crucial factor in producing seeds. This paper aims to estimate the level of efficiency of rice seed production and determine the factors that influence it using a frontier stochastic production function approach. The rice varieties developed are Inpara3, Inpari Nutri Zink and Baroma. The research was conducted in Rawa Medang Village, Batang Asam District, West Tanjung Jabung Regency, Jambi Province, in December 2021. Data collection was carried out through observation and in-depth interviews with seed breeders. By using the frontier production function, the conclusio

Abstract:

This paper empirically analyses average costs function and technical efficiency for 200 Slovenian municipalities in the year 2011. The methodology is based on the econometric estimation of the average costs function and stochastic parametric analysis of best-practice frontier to address technical inefficiencies. The results reveal that the average costs function for Slovenian municipalities is U-shaped, and the estimated least-cost size of the municipality implies that the current number of municipalities is not optimal. Besides, the average technical efficiency of Slovenian municipalities is

The purpose of this study was to measure and analyse the economic efficiency, and to identify the main factor behind economic efficiency of sorghum and millet for small scale farmers in traditional rainfed sector in North Kordofan State. Primary data is collected using structured questionnaire for a sample of 205 farmers from four localities namely (Sheikan, Umrwaba, Elnuhoud, and Elkhowi). Stochastic frontier approach (cost function) was used to analyse economic efficiency and descriptive statistics were used to analyse socio-economic characteristics of farmers.

The present study makes an attempt to analyse farm level cost inefficiency of maize farming and its determinants in different agro-climatic regions of Sikkim. The primary data for the study were collected during the third and fourth quarter of 2018 from different agro-climatic regions of Sikkim. Both data envelopment and stochastic frontier analysis were used for measurement of the farm level inefficiency across different agro-climatic regions of the study area. Based on the Cobb–Douglas cost function for maize output, the article simultaneously estimated stochastic frontier cost function and

This paper examines the profit efficiency of the banks in Bangladesh using the stochastic frontier analysis. The paper is prepared based on the secondary data only and the sample contains data from 25 banks including state owned and private conventional banks in Bangladesh from the year 2011 to 2020. Translog function has been employed to construct the profit function and Battese and Coelli 1995 (BC95) model has been used to determine the profit efficiency. The efficiency performance reveals that, on average, banks in Bangladesh are 80.73% profit efficient. Dutch-Bangla Bank Limited (DBBL) is

This study aimed to estimate the stochastic frontier production function and the inefficiency function and technical efficiency of potato production by using cross-section data collected from 173 potato farms that were randomly selected in Baghdad province/ Yusifiyah for production season 2016. The results showed that 90.6% of inefficiency in production was due to technical inefficiency. Also, there was a significant relationship between the variables of inefficiency function and the inefficiency of farms. The values of the parameters of the stochastic frontier production function were positiv
