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...

among the agricultural important factors, inputs are the most significant in agricultural production. this article aimed to examine the impact of government subsidy policies on production of one of the most strategic products, namely on production of one of the most strategic products, namely maize, in iran. to achieve this goal, panel data for the nine provinces of iran's major producers of ma...

considering iran geographical location, water is the most limited factor in agriculture section. therefore, it would be logical to consider water as one of the most significant criteria in selection of cultivation model. the purpose of this study is assigning cultivation pattern based on economic value of water in gotvand township in agronomic year 2008-2009. so it was necessary to computes the...

abstract in order to optimize the water management in agriculture in semi arid and arid conditions water-salinity function should be evaluated. in order to evaluate salinity and deficit irrigation two experiments were conducted in 2008 and 2009. kochia was grown with six levels of saline water (1.5, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35 ds/m) and three levels of applied water (25, 75, and 125 percent of the wa...

  An optimal desirability function method is proposed to optimize multiple responses in multiple production scenarios, simultaneously. In dynamic environments, changes in production requirements in each condition create different production scenarios. Therefore, in multiple production scenarios like producing in several production lines with different technologies in a factory, various fitted r...

In this paper, we present various functional means in the sense of convex analysis. In particular, a logarithmic mean involving convex functionals, extending the scalar one, is introduced. In the quadratic case, our functional approach implies immediately that of positive operators. Some examples, illustrating theoretical results and showing the interest of our functional approach, are discussed.

The quantitative relationship between higher education and economic growth in the tradition of “growth accounting equations” and also “neoclassical production function” approach have occupied a pride of place in economics of education, particularly the literature on more developed countries. However, production function type models that allow for isolating the “indirect” (external) effects of h...

The study of linear functions is important as it provides students with their first experience of identifying and interpreting the relationship between two dependent variables. This paper, which builds on previous research, reports a study undertaken with 64, year 9 students from two Australian schools. Linear functions were introduced to these students through a graphics calculator supported, ...

Given the strategic remarkable rank of pistachio in non-oil exports, inputs’ management in its production is so important. As the scarcest input in agricultural sector, water is considered to be among the most important inputs of pistachio production.Water inadequate supply and limate conditions increase water demand in pistachio growing areas. It is necessary to determine the real value or pri...
