Technical inefficiency and papaya farm size in West Africa: a stochastic frontier approach on Benin and Ghana data
Papaya is an emergent food and cash crop in Western Africa. It is used as an export crop in Ghana and for urban consumption in Benin. Papaya fruits are severely attacked by Papaya mealybug causing significant losses in quantity and quality. To control the papaya mealybug a classical biological contr...
