Assessing conventional and organic citrus farming systems eco- efficiency: a metafrontier directional distance function approach using Life Cycle Analysis
En este trabajo se analiza la eco-eficiencia de explotaciones citrícolas que operan bajo dos sistemas tecnológicos diferentes, convencional y orgánico. La metodología empleada combina el Análisis del Ciclo de Vida, para estimar los impactos ambientales vinculados al proceso de producción, y el Análisis Envolvente de Datos, para calcular la posición de cada explotación en relación a una frontera...
متن کاملMeasurement of dynamic efficiency, a directional distance function parametric approach
This research proposes a parametric estimation of the structural dynamic efficiency measures proposed by Silva and Oude Lansink (2009). Overall, technical and allocative efficiency measurements are derived based on a directional distance function and the duality between this function and the optimal value function. The applicability of the parametric proposal is illustrated by assessing dynamic...
متن کاملAssessing Organic Production Efficiency: A Stochastic Distance Function Approach
A stochastic distance function frontier was estimated using data from a national survey of organic farmers to evaluate the effect of farm-specific attributes on efficiency. Farm-specific and regional variables that shift efficiency were incorporated into the multioutput distance function, including organic farming experience, use of soil-improving inputs, and farmer involvement in research. Par...
متن کاملThe effects of veterinary services on technical efficiency of dairy farms in Iran: a DEA approach
The aim of this study is to investigate the context by which veterinary services may affect technical efficiency (TE) of Iranian dairy farms. A data envelopment analysis (DEA) was applied to a random sample of 840 dairy farms from six provinces across Iran to estimate regional frontier and metafrontier production functions and also to calculate corresponding TE of these farms. The relationship ...
متن کاملAssessing Chinese Commercial Bank Technical Efficiency with a Parametric Hyperbolic Distance Function
This paper contributes to the literatures about Chinese commercial banks technical efficiency. In order to eliminate the deviation of efficiency scores caused by an undesirable output that is represented by banks’ non-performing loans, the estimation is based on an enhanced parametric hyperbolic distance function which considers not only desirable outputs but also undesirable outputs. Furthermo...
