efficiency in agricultural production is indicative of the efficiency level of farm households in their farming activities. farmers in developing countries do not make use of all the potential technological resources, thus making inefficient decisions in their agricultural activities. herein, technical efficiency in relation with the production of three types of rice crop (boro, aus and aman) w...

in this paper, productivity of and demand for water throughout eqlid’s sugar beet growers in 1385 were investigated. to address the objective 100 growers were selected using two-stage cluster sampling, then required dataset was obtained by interviewing and completing questionnaire. in order to study factors affecting sugar beet production, cobb-douglas production function was applied. based on ...

The Cobb–Douglas function is today one of the most widely adopted assumptions in economic modeling, yet both its theoretical and empirical bases have long been under question. This paper builds an alternative function on very different (albeit also neoclassical) microfoundations aimed at both addressing those theoretical drawbacks and providing a better empirical fit than the Cobb–Douglas formu...

to calculate partial and total productivity of production factors in broiler farms in yazd province, 72 manufacturing units were selected based on simple random sampling method and their information and statistics were collected for one production period in the second half of 2013. to measure productivity, the cobb-douglas production function was estimated using classic and fuzzy regression met...

Production is the most fundamental activity in our economy. In this paper, a Cobb-Douglas production function is used as the mathematical model to describe the relationship among production, labor and capital. Two reliable production optimal control problems are studied. Algorithms to find dynamic optimal control intervals are provided with interval parameter presentations and interval computat...

In this work we analyze the large-time behavior of a spatially structured economic growth model coupling physical capital accumulation and pollution diffusion. This model extends other results in the literature along different directions. Alongside the classical Cobb–Douglas production function, a convex–concave production function is considered. We add a negative feedback to the production fun...
