Última Measuring Cost Efficiency in Smallholder Dairy Farms: Empirical Evidence from Northeast Thailand AgEcon Lapar, Ma. Lucila A.; Garcia, Alexis Arthur B.; Aditto, Satit; Suriya, Patcharee. This paper investigates smallholder dairy competitiveness from estimates of a translog cost frontier using data from 130 smallholder dairy farms in six provinces of Northeast Thailand. Cost efficiency estimates indicate that there is significant scope for improving cost efficiency in smallholder dairy farms in Northeast Thailand, and costs can be reduced by 26 percent on average. The empirical results also strongly suggest that smaller farms are more cost efficient than larger ones within this sample of smallholder dairy farms. Proper herd management for maintaining an optimal milking cows-herd size ratio coupled with yield-enhancing technologies can enhance cost efficiency. Feed technology options that can potentially reduce costs while maintaining...
