The Relative Cost Efficiencies of Commercial Banks, Rural Financial Institutions, and Microfinance Institutions in China AgEcon
Wu, Ya; Escalante, Cesar L.; Gunter, Lewell F..
This study employed data envelopment analysis (DEA) to evaluate the comparative efficiency performance of selected commercial banks, rural financial institutions and microfinance institutions in China. The first pairwise comparison indicated that commercial banks achieved higher level of overall technical efficiency, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency than rural financial institutions (including RCCs) through the study period (2004-2007). Overall technical inefficiency seems to be more attributed to scale inefficiency rather than pure technical inefficiency for both commercial banks and rural financial institutions. The second pairwise comparison indicated that RCCs and CFPA are the most efficient institutions with efficiency scores of 1...

A DECOMPOSITION APPROACH TO ANALYZING RACIAL AND GENDER BIASES AgEcon
Wu, Ya; Escalante, Cesar L.; Gunter, Lewell F.; Epperson, James E..
This study provides a different perspective in revisiting the racial and gender discrimination issue regarding FSA loans. The Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition method, commonly used in wage discrimination analysis, is employed to determine whether there exist unwarranted differences between the loan amounts approved among racial and gender classes. The findings of this study are inconclusive. As with previous studies, no clear and convincing evidence was found to signal racial or gender discrimination with respect to approved loan amounts to farmer borrowers.
Tipo: Conference Paper or Presentation Palavras-chave: Credit risk; Farm Service Agency; Gender bias; Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition; Racial bias; Agricultural Finance.

Foreign Workers and the Organic Farms’ Demand for Seasonal Unskilled Labor AgEcon
Wu, Ya; Escalante, Cesar L.; Perkins, Samuel L.; Neely, Carrie E..
This study analyzes farm labor management strategies of organic farms by employing Heckan selection model. Econometric results present interesting relationships between foreign worker-related variables and the hiring of non-family seasonal part-time workers. First, the extent of hiring is inversely related to the population of illegal residents. Second, the outcome variable (extent of hiring) is directly related to the number of H2A permits (foreign guest farm worker visas for temporary, contractual work) issued. The results also indicate that higher wages, corporate farms, and more educated, younger and full-time farm operators are associated with greater tendencies to hire non-family seasonal part-time workers. Family labor is used to supplement the...
