This study aimed to bring forth empirical evidence of the effect sustained adoption sustainable agricultural practices (SAPs) on technical and profit efficiency farmers. Previous studies remain inconclusive about whether SAPs has any bearing maize The current introduced concept compared levels between one-time SAP adopters adopters. Using a sample 2 100 households, employed Cobb-Douglas stochas...

Banking system plays an important role in the economic development of any country. Domestic banks, which are the main components of the banking system, have to be efficient; otherwise, they may create obstacle in the process of development in any economy. This study examines the technical efficiency of the Malaysian domestic banks listed in the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange (KLSE) market over the...

The stock market is considered essential for economic growth and expected to contribute to improved productivity. An efficient pricing mechanism of the stock market can be a driving force for channeling savings into profitable investments and thus facilitating optimal allocation of capital. This study investigated the technical efficiency of selected groups of companies of Bangladesh Stock Mark...

Agricultural Extension Services (AES) aim to improve farming knowledge that helps in increasing crop production and the technical efficiency of paddy farmers Bangladesh. The purposes this study are measure impact an AES, namely, Blue Gold programme, on level Boro southwest rural A total 122 were interviewed, employing a random sampling method. To analyse farmers, Cobb-Douglas stochastic frontie...

The conventional Cobb-Douglas production function model require strong assumptions such as the constant elasticity and the entire frontier efficiency. The varying elasticity production function is an useful extension but it does not take frontier efficiency into account, and the data envelope analysis model involves the use of linear programming methods to estimate the frontier efficiency where...

due to agriculture is a risky activity and risk models is important in order to analyze the behavior of farmers, hence, in this study, the factors affecting risk-taking and risk aversion is the region grape growers. data analysis was performed by using stochastic frontier. data gathered by questionnaires at three counties of zabol, hirmand and zahak at 265 grape farmers in crop year of 2011-201...

An attempt was made to determine the overall farm-specific technical efficiency or inefficiency of onion farms of Bangladesh. Farm-level data were used for the estimation of the parameters of Cobb-Douglas stochastic frontier production function. The model for technical inefficiency effects in the stochastic frontier included age, experience, education, and farm size. The elasticity of output wi...
