An investigation of factors that influence the technical efficiency of soybean production in the Guinea savannas of Nigeria
The objective of this study was to examine the determinants of technical efficiency (TE) of soybean production in the Guinea savannas. A stochastic frontier production function, using maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) technique was applied in the analysis of data collected in 2006 from a sample of...
