The technical efficiency and factors affecting efficiency of wheat farmers under dryland and irrigated conditions in the Jammu district of J &K state have been reported for the year 2006. The stochastic frontier production function has been used to determine the technical efficiency of these farmers. Technical efficiency has been found different under both the conditions. The estimated mean technical efficiency of wheat farmers under dry condition has been found to be 0.84, indicating 84 per cent efficiency in their use of production inputs, and for irrigated condition it has been found to be 0.88, that means the average output of wheat could be increased by 12 per cent by adopting technology properly. The value of γ under dry and irrigated conditions... |
