چکیده
This study aimed at analyzing technical efficiency and its determinants among tobacco producers in Uganda. To achieve this, primary data were drawn from 200 farmers using semi-structured questionnaires. In order to determine the determinants, Data envelopment analysis Tobit regression model used for respectively. From results, we observed that mean TE was 49%, implying 51% inefficient. Furthermore, input prices, land size, farmers’ age, farm income location found be of efficiency. recommended government should subsidize inputs as well training on combinations increase level. Int.
