Employment-related time poverty, time stress and food away from home behaviour
This study examines the link between employment-related time poverty and food away from home (FAFH) behaviour. We use a large representative sample of Australians drawn from five waves of panel data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey. Endogeneity biases stemming from reverse causality and omitted variable issues are resolved using fixed effect-instrumental variable approach while other quasi-experimental me…
Effects of weather on productivity growth of South African table grape industry
The current literature on productivity growth analysis in South Africa often overlooks two key factors, namely the weather effects and pollution-related issues. This study aims to address the first of these gaps by utilising a decade’s worth of panel data from the Table grape industry in the country. We conduct a comparison between Färe-Primont Index that ignores environmental change and statistical noise, and; Proper Index. The latter offers a m…
Estimating South African Higher Education Productivity and Its Determinants Using Färe-Primont Index
Recent high dropout and low graduation rates in the South African higher education institutions as well as government funding cuts and the economic uncertainty due to COVID-19 pandemic have heightened the urgency for the higher education sector to improve its productivity. However, empirical evidence on the productivity growth of the sector remains unexplored. To address this gap, we applied a Färe-Primont index approach to a panel data of 22 pub…
Total factor productivity growth in livestock production in Botswana
It is well established that improving livestock productivity has the potential to boost food security, income, and employment for rural communities. While the technical efficiency of the livestock sector has been extensively studied in both developing and developed countries, few studies have analysed total factor productivity (TFP) and its components (technical change, technical, scale, and mix efficiency changes). To fill this gap this study sp…
Drivers of integrated crop–livestock farming system’s efficiency for smallholder farmers in the forest-savanna transition agro-ecological zone of Ghana
Participation in farmer organizations and adoption of farming technologies among rice farmers in Ghana
Purpose The authors examine the factors influencing membership in farmer organizations (FO) and their effects on the decision to adopt farm technologies by rice farmers in Ghana. Design/methodology/approach This study uses a farm survey of 900 households from Northern Ghana and a recursive bivariate probit (RBP) model that accounts for selection bias and endogeneity. Findings The results indicate that the household head’s decision to adopt machin…
