A meta-frontier approach to measuring technical efficiency and technology gaps in beef cattle production in Argentina

In this paper the stochastic metafrontier method is applied to estimate technical efficiency (TE) and metatechnology ratios (MTR), in beef cattle production for three distinct regions in Argentina. A deterministic stochastic metafrontier production function model is estimated that envelops the indiv...
