An analysis of technical performance in Turkish beekeeping farms using Translog Production Function
, 2021 This paper investigates technical efficiencies of beekeeping farms and their determinants, using stochastic production frontier function in Malatya Province of Turkey. Data used in the study were collected from randomly selected 58 beekeepers. For the estimation of farm level technical efficiency coefficients, Stochastic Frontier Analysis method was ...

Aggregation and aggregation biases in production functions : a panel data analysis of translog models [PDF]
, 2002 Abstract: An applied econometric study of aggregation, based on an unbalanced panel data set for manu-facturing plants is presented. Panel data are informative in examining aggregation of variables, parameters, and relationships empirically since they (i) allow estimation at both the micro and the macro level, and (ii) enable comparison of the time ...

The Cobb-Gouglas function as an approximation of other functions [PDF]
By defining the Variable Output Elasticities Cobb-Douglas function, this article shows that a large class of production functions can be approximated by a Cobb-Douglas function with nonconstant output elasticity.
