Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht die Einflussfaktoren auf Ökologische Futterbaubetriebe in Deutschland. Der Datensatz besteht aus Buchführungsdaten von 305 Betrieben aus den Wirtschaftsjahren 1994/1995 bis 2005/2006. Fünf Inputs und ein Output wurden mit Hilfe einer stochastischen Frontieranalyse (SFA) untersucht. Das Model lässt die Schätzung von Heteroskedastizität zu und schätzt die Einflussfaktoren auf die technische Effizienz mit Hilfe des „Technical Effects Model“. Die Auswahl der Bestimmungs-gründe der technischen Effizienz umfasst 5 Indikatorgruppen. Die Analyse ist fokussiert auf die Auswirkungen der agrarpolitischen Instrumente und der regionalen Einflussfaktoren. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, das Zahlen der Agrarumweltprogramme die technische... |

The organic sector in Germany has experienced a substantial growth since the beginning of the 1990s until today. During this process of expansion, most organic farms have grown in terms of factor endowment, while others have disappeared or reconverted to conventional agriculture. This paper investigates the potential determinants of farms growth in the organic sector. This paper models potential factors that might have an impact on the economic growth of 332 organic farms in Bavaria and Baden-Wuerttemberg. The econometric model was developed based on ‘Gibrat’s Law’, using a fixed effect method (FE). The results suggest that direct marketing and livestock intensity significantly influence farm growth. In addition, less efficient farms grew faster than more... |

The reform-process towards a higher world-market orientation has a long tradition in Chile, with all its strengths and weaknesses. The food processing industry is highly competitive on the worldmarket. The following paper investigates the technical efficiency of the Chilean food processing industry between 2001 and 2007. We used a data-set from the 5,941 of firms in food processing industry. The observations are taken of the ‘Annual National Industrial Survey’. The method of stochastic frontier analysis is applied; the heteroscedasticity-model is used in order to analyze the determinants of technical efficiency. We included variables capturing different effects before and after the introduction of a liberalization policy in 2004. Raw materials and labor... |
