Abstract/Description: | The farm-specific technical efficiency in cultivation of major crops has been quantified, and effect of various socio-economic factors has been estimated using data from a representative sample of 240 households selected from eight watersheds and eight control villages in the Bundelkhand region of Madhya Pradesh. The mean technical efficiencies of the farmers range between 0.45 and 0.76 in watersheds and 0.33 and 0.66 in control villages, which indicate that there is a scope for further increase in production by efficient use of existing inputs and technology. The socio-economic factors like education, irrigation facilities, extension contacts, marketing contacts, etc. have been observed to be the significant determinants of farm-specific technical efficiency. |
