Productivity and public expenditure: a structural estimation for Vietnam’s provincesAsia-Pacific Journal of Regional Science - Tập 3 - Trang 95-120 - 2018
Phu Nguyen-Van, Thi Kim Cuong Pham, Duc-Anh Le
We propose a structural approach to investigate total factor productivity (TFP) and economic growth of 58 provinces and municipalities of Vietnam (known as one of the most dynamic emerging economies in the last few years). The analysis is applied to the provincial data that are available to us for the period 2000–2007. TFP is composed of three components: an autonomous technological change, an obs...... hiện toàn bộ
Modeling the effects of climate change on agricultural productivity: evidence from Himachal Pradesh, IndiaAsia-Pacific Journal of Regional Science - Tập 7 - Trang 521-548 - 2023
Sanjeev Kumar, Ajay K. Singh
This study examined the impact of climate change on yield, production and cropped areas of rice, wheat, gram and maize in Himachal Pradesh (Province), India, from 1970 to 2019 using the Cobb–Douglas production function approach (CDPFA). Euler’s theorem and marginal impact analytical technique (MIAT) were applied to determine the nature and degree of homogeneity and projected values of the selected...... hiện toàn bộ
