Productivity Indices

The total factor productivity indices of cashew estimated using the Tornqvist index for the period 1998-99 to 2017-18. TFP index was promising. It indicated that the inputs were efficiently allocated in cashew plantation. TFP increased at 3.13 percent per annum. During the same period, the output index grew by 2.18 percent per annum and the input index declined at the rate of 0.92 percent per annum. The improvement in the total factor productivity may be due to non-input factors such as research investment and extension efforts. The results indicated that research investment (0.23), rainfall (0.84), road density (0.56) and rural literacy (1.62) had significantly contributed to TFP growth in cashew

Measurement of productivity growth is very essential to take appropriate policy decisions for the development of the agriculture sector. Present study measures total factor Productivity growth of pigeon pea crop in sub-sector of Maharashtra State. The Tornqvist Theil chained Divisia index approach was applied for the measurement of total factor productivity using output and input data of pigeon pea crop. Farm-level data on yield, level of inputs use and their prices for the period 1989-90 to 2008-09 were taken from the state funded cost of cultivation scheme. The multi-variable model was utilized to know the determinants of total factor productivity growth taking total factor productivity as dependent variable. Beside double sown area, other explanatory variables included total amount of loan, net cropped area, area under irrigation, area under high yielding variety, annual rainfall, villages electrified, number of tractors, number of pump sets, road density. The results indicated that total factor productivity growth was positive in pigeon pea crop in sub sector of Maharashtra State. Area under irrigation, area under high yielding varieties, rainfall, and road density has positive and significant impact on total factor productivity of pigeon pea crop in sub- sector.

Tfp Growth

This paper examines total factor productivity (TFP) growth in resource and non resource based industries of the Malaysian manufacturing sector. The growth in TFP is examined between 2000 and 2005. Unlike previous studies that use one source of data from Industrial Manufacturing Survey (IMS), this research combines two sources of data–Malaysian Input-Output Tables and IMS. The motivation for this study was brought about due to the need to present a different method for estimating TFP growth using the input-output methodology. The result from this study for resource and non resource based industries reveals that the TFP growth is relatively low for both industries. In addition, the major source of change in TFP of the both industries is contributed by intermediate inputs, while the contribution of labour and capital is substantially low.

Using the World Input–Output Database, this paper calculates total factor productivity (TFP) growth for a sample of 40 economies during the period 1995–2009 to show that TFP growth in Asian economies has been relatively strong. In a number of Asian economies, TFP growth in services has outpaced that in manufacturing. This paper presents a novel structural decomposition of TFP growth and shows that the main drivers of aggregate productivity growth, as well as differences in productivity growth between services and manufacturing, have been changing factor requirements. These effects tend to offset the negative productivity effect of a declining ratio of value added to gross output.
