dc.description.abstractThis paper uses data envelopment analysis and stochastic frontier analysis to estimate technical efficiency of cotton production in Batman, Turkey. Full counting method was used for sampling. Data were collected on a sample of 64 cotton farmers in the production period of 2019/2020. Data on inputs such as land (ha), seeds (kg), N-P fertilizer (kg), machine and human labour (h), pesticides (litres), fuel (litres) and output such as yield (kg) were collected. According to the DEA results, the overall technical, pure technical, and scale efficiency were calculated as 0.90,0.98, and 0.91, respectively. The mean technical efficiency score obtained from SFA was calculated as 0.843. The mean technical efficiency obtained from the DEA was better than the result obtained from SFA. The empirical results indicated that technically inefficient farms had higher usage of land and P fertilizers. Therefore, cotton productivity can be increased with the proper use of inputs.
