“…They preferred to put their children through higher education and to allow them to have a job other than running a farm. This finding is in line with those findings in the researches conducted by Ojo (2003); Vilano and Fleming (2006); Okaye et al (2008); Ningsih et al (2015); Orewa and Izekor (2012) which show that age has negative influence on technical inefficiency.…”

Bud chip method has proven to improve the productivity of sugarcane and produce more efficient, but still a few farmers who use it. This is due to higher production costs and sugarcane farmers are still not technically skilled. This study aimed to analyze the technical efficiency of sugarcane farming with conventional methods and bud chips in the PTPN X and to identify the factors underlying the farmers to use methods of bud chips in the PTPN X. The number of samples used as many as 31 farmers (11 farmers sugarcane bud chip method and 20 sugarcane farmers mule method). This study uses a stochastic frontier production function approach with Stochastic Frontier production function Cobb Douglas and using a logistic regression model. The results showed the value of technical efficiency index sugarcane growers with bud chip method is efficient (TE = 0.98) whereas the sugarcane farmers who use mule systems have not been efficiently categorized (TE= 0.78). Bud chip method has been proven can improve technical efficiency because it can result in higher productivity. The underlying things that make farmers choose the bud chip method are extensive cultivation, education level and ease of sugarcane cultivation with the bud chip method. Therefore, sugarcane productivity in PTPN X can be increased through the use of the bud chip method accompanied by an increase in sugarcane land area and training for farmers.

“…Few studies on the production efficiency of laying hens did not take into account the regional heterogeneity. Ojo (2003) calculated the technical efficiency of laying hens production in Nigeria by collecting the data of 200 farms, and found that the efficiency value was between 0.239-0.933. And the larger the scale of breeding, the higher the production efficiency.…”

“…And the larger the scale of breeding, the higher the production efficiency. But he did not consider the impact of environmental factors on production efficiency [33]. Yusuf and Malomo (2007) calculated the technical efficiency of laying hens production in Ogun State, and obtained that the efficiency of sample farmers was 0.888.…”

Eggs contain the essential cholesterol and protein for the human body, which plays an irreplaceable role in human survival, production and life. There are significant differences in the development of laying hens feeding in different regions. It is of great significance to improve egg production and reduce pollution emission for China’s laying hens industry. Based on the SBM model, this paper constructs MML index, considering unexpected output under common frontier, to comprehensively evaluate the green total factor productivity on Chinese laying hens (GTCL). The results show that: (1) GTCL shows a large spatial and temporal differentiation under both the common frontier and the regional frontier. Compared with the eastern region and central region, the western region has obvious advantages in GTCL. (2) GTCL overall shows a downward trend, however, it emerges an upward trend in recent years. (3) Compared with small-scale and large-scale, middle-scale GTCL has advantages. According to the above empirical results, combined with the China’s actual national situation, this paper finally puts forward some policy recommendations to improve GTCL.

“…Studies on production efficiency and intensity of input use on commercial laying hens have been published. The area of the studies includes productivity and technical efficiency of poultry egg production in Nigeria (Ojo, 2003); technical effciency of poultry egg production in Ogun State (Yusuf and Malomo, 2007);productivity analysis of eggs production in Khorasan Razavi province (Mohaddes, 2009);technical efficiency of poultry production in Afijio Local Government Area of Oyo state (NigeriaAdesiyan and Israel, 2014); technical, allocative and economic efficiency of commercial poultry farms in Bangladesh (Begum et al, 2010);evaluation of technical and economic effciency of laying hen farms in Konya (Dogan et al, 2018) and stochastic frontier production function and efficiency status of poultry layer farms in Malaysia (Elpawati et al, 2018). From seven publications, not one is discussing or referring to production phase.…”
