Unexploited food production potentials of new varieties: evidence from hybrid maize production in western Ethiopia
The question of whether the intended gains in food production from new varieties have actually been realized by poor farmers has received little or no attention in the literature. This paper used a stochastic frontier efficiency decomposition methodology to derive the technical, allocative and econo...
