The results of this study indicate that both wheat productivity and technical efficiency measures are positively related to farm size. This result is in contrast to the previous work using data from developing countries. Wheat yield is negatively associated with the area under rice crop,...

This paper uses the farm-level survey data to estimate the stochastic frontier production function incorporating inefficiency effects. Sufficient evidence of positive relationship between wheat productivity and higher and balanced use of fertiliser nutrients was present. The productivity showed...

A major objective of this paper is to review the growth performance of Pakistan's livestock sub-sector. While over time the growth rate of livestock production has been good, it has exhibited considerable variation from product to product and period to period. Poultry production exhibited high...

This paper deals with an empirical verification of factors determining farm level fertiliser demand in irrigated Pakistan. The results show that education and extension in general have positive influence on fertiliser use per cultivated acre. Fertiliser demand exhibits inverse relationship with...
