The Total Factor Productivity Growth Decomposition of Agricultural Production in Middle Regions-based on Panel Data of 2000-2007

摘要

In this paper analyses the total factor productivity growth decomposition of agricultural production in middle regions of 2000-2007 with stochastic frontier production function approach,split total factor productivity changes into 4 components:technical Progress,technical efficiency change,scale efficiency,allocative inefficiency.The result shows:rate of increase of total factor productivity growth is 5.62% on average in 2000-2007 of middle agricultural production,The influence on increasing in total factor productivity is mainly technical progress,allocative inefficiency and scale efficiency.The technical progress is the main motive force,accounts for 104% on average,scale efficiency accounts for 16%,the change of technical efficiency is the downward trend,accounts for 9%,the influence of resource distribution is reverse,accounts for 11% on average.Improving the agricultural production technology efficiency level in the middle,need to popularize agriculture's new variety and new technology further,adjust resource allocative structure.
