2018-02-02 The metafrontier model enables the calculation of comparable technical efficiencies for firms operating under different technologies. The model also enables the technology gaps to be estimated for firms under different technologies relative to the potential technology available to the industry as a whole. The metafrontier is assumed to employ the same technology as the individual stochastic frontiers in different groups. In this manner, the upper boundary now faced by all hospitals is the metafrontier, instead of the individual group frontiers.

Journal of Productivity Analysis, 21, 91–103. ISI, Google Scholar Growth theory argues on the role of heterogeneity that can lead to multiple regimes examining countries’ performance. A meta-production stochastic function under a Bayesian perspective has been developed to estimate technical efficiencies across countries over a time period. The metafrontier model is used to highlight heterogeneity among cluster of countries revealing catch up phenomena. 2021-01-19 metafrontier, namely, Technological Gap Ratios (TGRs). The latter component represents the restrictive nature of the production environment [4]. Metafrontier analysis is an approach that allows comparison between different technologies [5].

Furthermore, eco-efficiency is assessed at the level of specific environmental Abstract. Agricultural productivity in Africa from 1971 to 2000 is examined using the recently developed metafrontier function technique, for the purpose of studying differences in efficiency and technology gap across different regions of the continent.

The stochastic metafrontier framework proposed by Battese and Rao (2002) and Battese et al. (2004) is followed in this analysis.

1251-1272. The metafrontier model 24 makes it possible to calculate comparable technical efficiencies for agricultural farms that operate under different technologies. The main aim of this study was to compare tomato productivity of com-mercial and smallholder tomato farmers in the Nkomazi area, Mpumalanga, using a metafrontier analysis. Analogous to Battese et al. (J Prod Anal 21:91–103, 2004 ), the metafrontier production function allows for calculating comparable TE measures, which can be decomposed into group specific TE measures and technology gap ratios. Findings.

Several studies employ the metafrontier to be the main method in their research, emphasizing on the measurement of technical efficiency (TE) and technical gap ratio (TGRs). The metafrontier is assumed to employ the same technology [ 13] as the individual stochastic frontiers in different groups. In this manner, the upper boundary now faced by all hospitals is the metafrontier, instead of the individual group frontiers. This paper uses the concept of a metafrontier to compare the technical efficiencies of firms that may be classified into different groups. The metafrontier technique consists of enveloping the groups of frontiers estimated through another frontier, called metatechnology. This technique entails the estimation of the metatechnology and the frontiers of relatively homogenous groups (Rao et al., 2004). DEA-Malmquist productivity index can be understood in terms of distance functions.

Abstract: The metafrontier framework proposed by O'Donnell et al.

2017-09-01 Abstract. This paper uses directional distance functions to extend the non-parametric metafrontier approach to efficiency measurement proposed by OÕDonnell et al. (2008) to the assessment of technological differences in eco-efficiency between groups of producers. Furthermore, eco-efficiency is assessed at the level of specific environmental Abstract.
