Formal Participation in a Milk Supply Chain and Technical Inefficiency of Smallholder Dairy Farms in Pakistan
This paper provides empirical evidence on the impact on technical inefficiency of smallholder dairy producers when they formally participate in a milk supply chain. Here the stochastic production frontier and technical inefficiency effects model are estimated based on the data gathered from 800 smallholder dairy farms in Pakistan. The results suggest that the technical inefficiency of the parti...
متن کاملAssessing technical inefficiency of bus transit with adjustment of accidents
In the light of occasional involvement of traffic accidents and of seldom costless to dispose such undesirable accidents, conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) methods, which assume that traffic accidents are freely disposable in bus transit efficiency measurement, may not be appropriate. To rectify this shortcoming, this paper attempts to construct directional output distance function m...
متن کاملA Post-Truncation Parameterization of Truncated Normal Technical Inefficiency
In this paper we consider a stochastic frontier model in which the distribution of technical inefficiency is truncated normal. In standard notation, technical inefficiency u is distributed as , . This distribution is affected by some environmental variables z that may or may not affect the level of the frontier but that do affect the shortfall of output from the frontier. We will distinguish th...
متن کاملStereospecific analyses of several vegetable fats.
The distribution of fatty acids among the positions 1, 2, and 3 of triglycerides of seven vegetable fats has been determined. The fatty acid compositions in positions 1 and 3 are very similar in most cases, but in none of the fats is the distribution completely symmetrical.
متن کاملEpidemiology of Campylobacter spp. at two Dutch broiler farms.
Broiler flocks on two Dutch poultry farms were screened weekly for the presence of campylobacter in fresh caecal droppings during eight consecutive production cycles. Hatchery and fresh litter samples were taken at the start of each new cycle. Water, feed, insects, and faeces of domestic animals, present on the farms were also included in the sampling. Penner serotyping of isolates was used to ...
