Technical efficiency of irrigated and rain-fed smallholder agriculture in Tigray, Ethiopia: a comparative stochastic frontier production function analysis

Stochastic production frontiers of irrigated and rain-fed smallholder agriculture in Tigray, Ethiopia, were fitted to a random sample of irrigated and rain-fed plots to compare their technical efficiencies. Propensity Score Matching Method was applied to select rain-fed plots with comparable bio-phy...
