By Nguyen Thanh Dong Trinh Nguyen (VNP 15)

Supervisor: Dr. Nguyen Trong Hoai Dr. Pham Le Thong

Abstract

The research investigates the technical efficiency level and determinants of rice production in Vietnam. The analysis employs the Vietnam Household Living Standard Survey 2008 data set and stochastic production frontier approach. The mean technical efficiency level is 80%. Credit approach, land policy, and experience are not significant elements of technical efficiency models while the irrigation, promotion program, education and gender of household head are significant ones.
