Analyzing the technical performance of Swedish farms

摘要: This study analyses the technical performance of Swedish farms involved in horse related activities.

The relevant data has been collected from a survey implemented supervised LRF Konsult designed department Economics at University Agricultural Sciences. complete sample consists 428 observations, but only 58 analysis performance. output consist income agricultural land, labor, capital intermediate consumption. results show there no farm neither fully efficient nor inefficient mean 0.69. Factors do an operation activities farmers receive grants. factor age does also younger tend be more than older do.
