Resumo(s)
A two-stage Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) approach is employed to analyse the
efficiency of dairy farms in mainland Portugal. The data are a 2010 sample from the
European Commission Farm Accountancy Data Network (FADN) of 271 Portuguese
mainland dairy farms. In the first stage, a directional input distance function and DEA
are used to generate overall inefficiency measures and decompose them for each farm.
In the second stage, the inefficiency measures are regressed on environmentaland/or
organizational factors to explain efficiency differentials. Despite environmental and/or
organizational differences, results indicate that most dairy farms in mainland Portugal
can reduce costs by improving allocative efficiency and pure technical efficiency.
