TAILIEUCHUNG - Socio-economic, pedological and climate determinants of producers’ technical efficiency in Mali

This paper uses data from the National Surveys‟ data from the Living Standards Measurement Study and the Integrated Surveys on Agriculture for Mali of 2014 to analyze socio-economic, pedological and climate determinants of producers‟ technical efficiency in Mali. To do so, a stochastic production frontier was estimated for each crop category and the full sample. | Journal of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences December 2018 Vol. 7 No. 2 pp. 54-63 ISSN 2334-2404 Print 2334-2412 Online Copyright The Author s .

To do so a stochastic production frontier was estimated for each crop category and the full sample. Globally the finding is that different stochastic parameters affect significantly the technical efficiency of different crop categories producing plots. On average we have an efficiency score of for the full sample. The cash crop producing plots are technically more efficient than cereal crop producing plots. Regarding the results the setting up the following measures is highly recommended provide adequate training methods of new technologies and new agricultural practices for cereal crop producers crop diversification must be introduced to the production system and the promotion of better irrigation systems.

Introduction The main cause of food availability of smallholder farmers in developing regions and countries is the production efficiency level. African sub-Saharan countries are the most touched by this phenomenon. In Mali where the most produced and consumed cereals are rice millet sorghum cotton and maize. The respective yields of these cereals are lower than their potential yields CSA5
