not satisfied in real economies. Moreover, growth accounting assumes efficiency on factor and commodity markets, and … consequently does not distinguish between efficiency change and technical change. In this paper, we estimate total factor … efficiency change and technical change components. Using input-output tables of the US economy for the period 1977 to 2006, we …

We measure eco-efficiency of an economy by means of an augmented Leontief input-output model extended by constraints … for primary inputs. Using a multi-objective optimization model the eco-efficiency frontier of the economy is generated … eco-efficiency is obtained as a solution of a data envelopment analysis (DEA) model with virtual DMUs defining the …

Monitoring soil quality provides indispensable inputs for effective policy advice, but very few poorer countries can implement high-quality surveys on soil. We offer an alternative, low-cost imputation-based approach to generating various soil quality indicators. The estimation results validate...

Available potassium (AVK) in the soil of cropland is one of the most important factors determining soil quality and agricultural productivity. Thus, it is crucial to understand the variation of AVK and its influencing factors for sustaining soil fertility and mitigating land degradation. Farm...

We provide a theoretical model linking limits to the observability of soil quality to state rulers' ability to tax agricultural output, which leads to a higher political fragmentation. We introduce a spatial measure to quantify state planners' observability in an agricultural society. The model...

This paper provides empirical evidence of changes in the productivities of manufacturing firms in Indonesia over time, in the form of total factor productivity (TFP), from 1990 to 2010 with and without considering carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Employing cleaned and balanced panel datasets for...
