Overview

This study demonstrates the negative effects of land rental prices on agricultural technical efficiency in family farms, highlighting critical implications for sustainable farming practices.

Key Points

  • Higher land rental prices significantly reduce the technical efficiency of family farms.
  • The average technical efficiency score among surveyed farms was 0.72, indicating substantial potential for improvement.
  • Technical efficiency is affected by decreased investment in agricultural machinery and reduced participation in technical training.
  • The study employs an endogenous stochastic frontier model to handle the endogeneity of input variables.
