Resumo: | Farm financial structure may affect both short- and long-run input usage, thereby affecting farm efficiency.  Any inefficiencies arising from the choice of inputs can be magnified over time as credit constraints continue to affect input usage.  In a panel of 54 North Dakota crop farms, efficiency and debt structure were related.  Intermediate debt was found to be positively related to farm technical efficiency, and short-term debt was negatively associated with technical efficiency.  Use of intermediate-term debt was positively associated with farm-scale efficiency, whereas no significant relationship was found between short- and long-term debt and scale efficiency.
