.... Design/methodology/approach Survey data from 230 Argentine wineries are used to estimate production functions and assess technical efficiency through Stochastic Frontier Analysis. The analysis categorizes wineries by wine pursued quality and further segments them into exporters and non-exporters...

.... Design/methodology/approach This paper employed a comparative analysis of the short- and long-term net effects of climate change and variability on agricultural TFP and its components. The agricultural TFP components were obtained by applying stochastic frontier analysis to data from 27 sub-Saharan...

... at the farm level. Design/methodology/approach Using farm-level data from 511 cotton growers in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan collected in 2019, this study employs stochastic frontier analysis to measure potential output and technical inefficiency among cotton farmers. The analysis includes a translog...

... Rice Price spread Value chain Stochastic frontier analysis Mark-ups Rice is a staple food for about 160 million people in Bangladesh and plays a crucial role in their livelihood (Siddique et al., 2017). Rice production is key to the political and agricultural economy of Bangladesh...

... approach (data envelopment analysis (DEA)) or a parametric approach (stochastic frontier analysis (SFA)). The choice of using DEA or SFA as a measure of technical efficiency has been widely debated and, according to Wadud and White (2000) , is dependent on the purpose of the research. The main...
