Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDeterminants of Technical Efficiency of Sugarcane Production among Small Holder Farmers in Lao PDRPoungchompu SupapornThis study was to examine technical efficiency in sugarcane production in Savannakhet, Lao PDR. A stochastic frontier production function was applied with the data collected from 110 sample farmers in 2012. The results reveal that cultivated area (p<0.01), hired labor (p<0.10) and capital (p<0.10) are the major significantly positive factors in the output of sugarcane. Mean of technical efficiency was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 9 · 3 Oct 2015 · 6,678 accessesView PDF Cite
