Implication

Econometric analysis reveals a 76.05% technical efficiency in flood-prone rice farming, indicating that input optimization and socio-economic factors drive productivity.

Key Points

To estimate the technical efficiency of rice farming in flood-prone areas and evaluate the socio-economic factors and inputs influencing production.
Applied a stochastic frontier production function to evaluate rice farming efficiency in flood-prone regions of East Java, Indonesia.
Analyzed the effects of production inputs (farm size, labor, seed, urea, ZA fertilizer, and tractor use) and socio-economic variables on agricultural efficiency.
Farming operations in flood-prone zones achieved an average technical efficiency of 76.05%.
Farm size, labor, seed, urea fertilizer, and ZA fertilizer showed statistically significant positive effects on rice output, whereas tractor usage had a statistically significant negative effect.
Technical efficiency was positively and significantly influenced by larger farm size, older household head age, higher household head education, land ownership, and off-farm employment.
