TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF CHINESE GRAIN PRODUCTION: A STOCHASTIC PRODUCTION FRONTIER APPROACH [PDF]
This article examines technical efficiency of the Chinese grain sector using the framework of stochastic production frontier. The results reveal that: the marginal products of labor and fertilizer are much smaller than that of land; human capital and ...

Abstract Industrial ethanol production faces the challenge of balancing metabolic efficiency with the minimization of byproducts such as glycerol, whose formation is intensified by osmotic, thermal, oxidative, and nutritional stresses. In the literature, two main approaches stand out for modulating its synthesis: the use of genetically modified strains
