Summary. and Conclusion. 330 $aThis book employs different parametric and non-parametric panel data models which have been used in history of developed panel data efficiency measurement literature. It assesses the differences of models based on characteristics and efficiency scores measurement using a systematic sensitivity analysis of the results. On the whole twelve parametric and four nonparametric models were studied. Parametric models are classified in four groups in terms of the assumptions made on the temporal behavior of inefficiency. A common issue among all the parametric models is that inefficiency is individual producer-specific. This is consistent with the notion of measuring the efficiency of decision-making units. Non-parametric models are divided into partial and full frontier models. A main contribution of this volume is that it helps to understand differences between parametric and non-parametric models. On empirical part of the volume, technical efficiency of two agricultural strategic crops (cotton and sugar beet) in different provinces of the Iran are analyzed. Using different models, the most efficient and inefficient provinces in cotton and sugar beet production of Iran are recognized. 410 0$aPerspectives on Development in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Region,$x2520-1239 606 $aMiddle East?Economic conditions 606 $aMicroeconomics 606 $aAgriculture$xEconomic aspects 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aMiddle Eastern and North African Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W45050 606 $aMicroeconomics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W31000 606 $aAgricultural Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W47000 606 $aEconomic Growth$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W44000 615 0$aMiddle East?Economic conditions. 615 0$aMicroeconomics. 615 0$aAgriculture$xEconomic aspects. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 14$aMiddle Eastern and North African Economics. 615 24$aMicroeconomics. 615 24$aAgricultural Economics. 615 24$aEconomic Growth. 676 $a330.00956 700 $aRashidghalam$b Masoomeh$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01065117 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349476803321 996 $aMeasurement and Analysis of Performance of Industrial Crop Production: The Case of Iran?s Cotton and Sugar Beet Production$92543244 997 $aUNINA
