Data Envelopment Analysis of the Efficiency of Agricultural Production in Henan Province

Yun Hong-wan

Abstract

The efficiency of agricultural production in 18 areas of Henan province was analyzed by BC2 model of data envelopment analysis(DEA) method,which weighed the comprehensive efficiency,the technical efficiency and the scale efficiency.The results showed that the pure technical efficiency of seven areas such as Luoyang was 1,and the overall technical efficiency of Hebi,Zhoukou,Xinyang achieved optimization.This indicated that the scale inefficiency in the areas,in addition to geography,economic conditions and related agricultural inputs,would not make the agricultural resources allocated effectively,leading to differences in efficiency of agricultural production.We should adjust the proportion of agricultural resources and enhance the application of science in agriculture,which was the key to realize agricultural modernization.
