The efficiency of maize farming in Malawi. A bootstrapped translog frontier

Abstract

On mesure le niveau et les déterminants de l’efficacité technique des petits producteurs de maïs en utilisant la méthode de frontière stochastique translog bootstrappée dont la validité est vérifiée a posteriori. Les résultats montrent que les plus hauts niveaux d’efficacité technique sont obtenus par les agriculteurs utilisant une fertilisation intégrée de la culture plutôt que des fertilisants uniquement minéraux. Concernant les variables de politique utilisées dans l’analyse, l’accès aux marchés des input et output, l''offre de crédit et les services complémentaires influencent considérablement l’efficacité technique des petits agriculteurs. Il est souhaitable d’approfondir ces dimensions de la politique publique avant d’aborder l’efficacité de l’agriculture malawienne et ses conséquences sur la pauvreté en garantissant une gestion durable de la fertilité du sol.
