A Generalized Maximum Entropy Stochastic Frontier Measuring Productivity Accounting for Spatial Dependency
In this paper, a stochastic frontier model accounting for spatial dependency is developed using generalized maximum entropy estimation. An application is made for measuring total factor productivity in European agriculture. The empirical results show that agricultural productivity growth in Europe i...
