| Title : | TECHNOLOGICAL AND TECHNICAL CHANGES OF AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION IN SERBIA |
| Abstract : | In this paper, the authors use the DEA methodology for the evaluation and analysis of the total technical efficiency (TE), which includes pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency, which is the result of all sizes of business. Changes in the TE were analysed using Malmquist's productivity index. This change can be broken down into the change of technical efficiency and technological change (innovation), and change in technical efficiency in itself involves changing of pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency. In the present study, data from 16 areas in Serbia were used, for data were available on investments in agriculture. The aim of this study was to analyse whether there is a technological change in these areas. |
