Abstract

The study aims to determine the efficiency of input use and to analyze the factors affecting technical efficiency in farms producing maize. Maize is among the most cultivated cereals in the world. Konya, on the other hand, ranks first in Turkey with a 10% share in maize production. The research area of Cumra district, which constitutes 15.76% of the maize production in Konya province, has been selected according to the purposive sampling method. In the study, the sample volume was determined as 77, with a 95% confidence interval and a 5% margin of error, according to the stratified sampling method. In the study, linear regression analysis was carried out to determine the factors affecting the technical efficiency of maize producers. According to the results of the research, gross production value (USD), total land size (ha), and age were found to be statistically significant at the 5% significance level. Variable costs and education were statistically significant at the 10% significance level. The DEA method, which is a non-parametric method, was used to determine the technical efficiency and scale efficiency of farms under the assumption of technical efficiency, VRS, and CRS. Farms should be informed about the optimum use of inputs. In addition, a farmer training program to be organized on this subject should be given to the farmers.

Özet

Çalışmanın amacı, mısır üretimi yapan işletmelerin girdi kullanım etkinliğinin belirlenmesi ve teknik etkinliğe etki eden faktörlerin tespit edilmesidir. Mısır dünyada en fazla tarımı yapılan tahıllar arasındadır. Konya ili ise mısır üretiminde %10’luk bir pay ile ilk sırada yer almaktadır. Araştırma alanı, Konya ili mısır üretiminin %15.76’sını oluşturan Çumra ilçesi gayeli örnekleme yöntemine göre seçilmiştir. Araştırmada örnek hacmi, tabakalı örnekleme yöntemine göre, %95 güven aralığı, %5 hata payı ile 77 olarak belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada mısır üretimi yapan işletmelerin teknik etkinliklerini etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek için doğrusal regresyon analizi yapılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre gayri safi üretim değeri (USD), toplam arazi büyüklüğü (ha) ve yaş %5 önem düzeyinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur. Değişen masraflar ve eğitim, %10 anlamlılık düzeyinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlıydı. Teknik etkinlik, VRS ve CRS varsayımı altında çiftliklerin teknik etkinliği ve ölçek etkinliğinin belirlenmesinde parametrik olmayan bir yöntem olan VZA yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Çiftlikler girdilerin optimum kullanımı konusunda bilgilendirilmelidir. Ayrıca bu konuda düzenlenecek bir çiftçi eğitim programı çiftçilere verilmelidir.
