Modeling Factors Influencing Barley Yield in Ethiopia: Augmented Cobb-Douglas Production Function Approach
Abera Gayesa Tirfi
Abstract:Barley production in Ethiopia is constrained by climatic and non-climatic factors. The objective of this study was to examine the influence of climate change and non-climatic inputs on barley yield in Ethiopia. The study employed an augmented Cobb-Douglas production function approach to model factors influencing barley yield in the country. The results revealed that short/belg-season rainfall and temperature variables showed positive relationship with barley yield, having minimal positive impact on yield of ba… Show more
