This paper examines and applies the theoretical foundation of the decomposition of economic and productivity growth to the thirty provinces in China's post-reform economy. The four attributes of economic growth are input growth, adjusted scale effect, technical progress, and efficiency growth. A...

In empirical economic analysis efficiency measurement traditionally at the macro and micro level is based on a production model using profit maximization or cost minimization for a single representative entrepreneur as its foundation. Common indicators are ratios of an output-indicator and...

We present a model for studying regional and sectoral variation in total factor productivity (TFP) and develop an … empirical test, based on the skewness of TFP distribution, to empirically distinguish between different growth theories. While … sectors and regions explains TFP. This argument provides the framework for an empirical model based on stochastic frontier …

The growing population and climatic uncertainties have compelled producers to undertake faster exploitation of the resources in agricultural production to meet global food security, which, in turn, leads towards unsustainable and input-led inefficient production growth. The problem is further...

The main purpose of this paper is to examine determinants of the quot;levelquot; and the quot;ratequot; of technical efficiency by firstly exploring a firm-level data set of 4600 enterprises in the industrial sector of Vietnam during transition from 2001-2005. The empirical results reveal a...

decomposition of direct and indirect (spillover) total factor productivity (TFP) growth, as well as the gross direct and indirect … positive and lead to higher productivity growth. On average, indirect effects provide an additional TFP growth of 3.1% and an … additional efficiency spillover of 18.98%. However, the estimated results also show that TFP growth is declining over time and …

Previous research shows that technical progress at the industry level, measured by sectoral TFP growth, is more … localized in continental European countries than in Anglo-Saxon coun-tries. We use EU KLEMS data sets to decompose sectoral TFP … technological progress is much more evenly distributed across sectors than TFP. …
