This study aims at estimating gross and net technical efficiencies using four alternative Cobb- Douglas stochastic production frontiers. This study reveals that production of wheat in Bangladesh is profitable and small farmers earned significantly higher yield and net returns per hectare than...

A Translog stochastic frontier cost function was estimated to determine the economic efficiency of fish production in Bangladesh. Economic inefficiency effect model was also estimated simultaneously with stochastic frontier to identify factors which influence efficiency. The coefficients of age...

The study examines the changing trends, growth rates, stability and regional variations of crop area, production and yield. Over time, the average size of farms has become smaller and smaller and the distribution of landholdings has also become more and more skewed a result of which is the...
