Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY of WHEAT production in the provinces of IRAN. To this end, a panel data approach as well as data envelope analysis and STOCHASTIC FRONTIER APPROACHes are employed using the data over the period 1999- 2002.These two latter approaches are used to evaluate the robustness of the results. The findings of the parametric approach show that the average TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY of WHEAT production is 0.75 in IRAN over the period 1999 - 2002. According to this approach, Gilan and Bushehr provinces are ranked the highest (0.81) and lowest (0.26) TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY among the provinces, respectively. The findings of the non-parametric approach indicate that the average TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY of WHEAT production is 0.84 in IRAN during the same period. Sistan, Kohgiluyeh and Boyrahmad, Gilan, and Mazandaran Provinces reach 100 percent TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY. However, Yazd is ranked the lowest level of TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY with 57 percent among all provinces.
