“…Farm-or field-level resource use efficiencies are of particular interest to practitioners, especially when they affect economic performance. Typical indicators are productivity (Alam, Humphreys, Sarkar, 2016), water use efficiency (Pascual, Villar, & Rufat, 2016;Wei et al, 2016;Zhao et al, 2010), benefit-cost ratio (Alam et al, 2017;Moreau et al, 2012;Rehman, Farrukh Saleem, Safdar, Hussain, & Akhtar, 2011), nutrient use efficiency (nitrogen: Buckley, Wall, Moran, O'Neill, & Murphy, 2016;Gu, Ju, Chang, Ge, & Chang, 2017;and phosphorous: Gerber, Uwizeye, Schulte, Opio, & de Boer, 2014;Zhang et al, 2016), and energy use efficiency (Arodudu, Helming, Voinov, & Wiggering, 2017;Hill, Nelson, Tilman, Polasky, & Tiffany, 2006). Efficiency assessments with landscape or global implications are relevant to policy makers.…”
