Trade-Off between Land Use Pattern and Technical Efficiency Performance: Evidence from Arable Crop Farming in Tunisia

Bouali Guesmi et al.

Summary: Cereal, oilseed, and protein (COP) production is important for sustainable development goals (SDGs) in Tunisia. Crop diversity can lead to inefficient resource use, and the COP sector has low productivity levels due to weather conditions. This study used data envelopment analysis (DEA) to assess the relationship between land use patterns and farm efficiency. Specialized COP farms showed higher technical efficiency levels than mixed cropping systems, indicating room for reducing inefficiency.

Economic and social development generated by innovative startups: does heterogeneity persist across Italian macro-regions?

Diego Matricano

Summary: This paper investigates the heterogeneity in terms of economic and social development generated by innovative startups across three macro-regions in Italy. It tests the impact of three parameters - investments in R&D activities, hiring experienced researchers, and holding a patent - on economic and social development, and reveals the heterogeneity or homogeneity between northern, central, and southern Italian macro-regions. Statistical analysis using an unbalanced panel of 11,052 Italian innovative startups shows that heterogeneity persists in terms of factors generating economic and social impact, but homogeneity exists in terms of causes of gaps from the efficiency frontier. Specifically, results for the northern macro-region indicate specific dynamics that can enhance the economic and social impact of innovative startups if managed properly.

Quantile estimation of stochastic frontiers with the normal-exponential specification

Samah Jradi et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the estimation of the stochastic frontier model through quantile regression, focusing on the Normal-Exponential distributional setting. The method involves evaluating the Normal-Exponential cumulative distribution function at the expected value of OLS residuals to estimate the model parameters consistently with the location of the frontier. Both simulations and empirical evidence demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.

Technological Heterogeneity in Pig Farming: A Metafrontier Approach-Perspectives from Hungary and Poland

Lajos Barath et al.

Summary: This study investigated the evolution of technical efficiency in pork industry in Poland and Hungary using stochastic frontier analysis and metafrontier model. Results showed differences in production function and technological decline in both countries, with Hungarian farms being more technologically developed but less efficient compared to country frontier. Different policy measures are suggested for improving efficiency in these countries.

A Metafrontier Analysis on the Performance of Grain-Producing Regions in Norway

Habtamu Alem

Summary: This study utilizes the stochastic metafrontier approach to estimate regional efficiency and technological gap in Norwegian grain farms, finding that farmers vary in performance and technology use. The paper offers insights for regionally and farming system-based policies to increase grain production for self-sufficiency and small-scale farming in all regions.

The Effect of Land Fragmentation on the Technical Inefficiency of Dairy Farms

Tracy Bradfield et al.

Summary: Land fragmentation, distance between parcels, and land separate from the main farm all contribute to technical inefficiency on dairy farms in Ireland. Efficiency can be improved by increasing parcel area, reducing travel distances, seeking advisory services, implementing intensive practices, and hiring labor.
