“…Within industrialized countries, it is worth noting that the majority of studies cover Europe. Despite some of the earliest studies being on Canada (Giannakas, Schoney, and Tzouvelekas 2001) and the United States (Lachaal 1994), there are only four more studies on the United States (Lambert and Bayda 2005;Serra, Zilberman, and Gil 2008;Chidmi, Solis, and Cabrera 2011;Zaeske 2012). In Europe, one publication has focused on Switzerland (Ferjani 2008), two on Norway (Kumbhakar and Lien 2010; Kumbhakar, Lien, and Hardaker 2014) and two on Russia (Sotnikov 1998;Sedik, Trueblood, and Arnade 2000).…”

Investigating the impact of public subsidies on farm technical efficiency is becoming a critical issue in applied agricultural policy analysis. This article presents a meta-analysis of empirical results on this issue, based on data gathered from a systematic literature review. We find that, in the empirical literature, subsidies are commonly negatively associated with farm technical efficiency. Meta-regression estimation results show that the direction (significantly negative, significantly positive or non-significant) of the observed effects is sensitive to the way subsidies are modelled in the empirical studies.
