Comparison of agriculture efficiency of Chinese provinces

Abstract

The article presents the diversification of agriculture efficiency of Chinese provinces in 2013 based on the Data Envelopment Analysis method. The model features the following variables: 1 effect (value of purchased agricultural products) and 5 inputs (area of agricultural land, number of people employed in agriculture, use of fertilizers, number of tractors, livestock). This article presents the use of input-oriented CCR and BCC model, to determine overall technical efficiency, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency of agriculture in Chinese provinces. The analysis gives the possibility of creating a ranking of provinces. The highest agriculture efficiency during the period was achieved by 7 provinces (in CCR model) and 16 provinces (in BCC model). The results point out reasons for inefficiency and provide directions of improvement for inefficient Decision Making Units.<br/><br/>
