    We hypothesize a reciprocal causation between crop insurance use and the economic performance of farms in an environment characterized by imperfect financial markets and farms’ budget constraints. To test our hypothesis, we apply a system of simultaneous equations consisting of economic performance and insurance demand models to the case study of Hungarian cropping farms. In addition, considering that insured farms may have better access to external finance, we seek empirical evidence confirming a potential positive effect of crop insurance on the economic performance of financially constrained farms. Our study results indeed confirm the reciprocal causation hypothesis.

    In the paper we investigate relative productivity levels and decompose productivity change for European agriculture between 2004 and 2013. More specifically (1) we contribute to the debate whether agricultural Total Factor Productivity (TFP) has declined or not in the European Union (EU); (2) we compare the relative TFP level across EU member states and investigate the difference between ‘old’ member states (OMS, i.e. the EU-15) and ‘new’ member states (NMS) and (3) we test whether TFP is converging or not among member states. The empirical analysis applies the aggregate quantity framework developed in O’Donnell (2008), using country level panel data from the Economic Accounts for Agriculture for 23 EU member states. The results imply that TFP has slightly decreased in the EU over the analysed period; however there are significant differences in this respect between the OMS and NMS and across member states. Finally, our estimations support the productivity convergence hypothesis across the member states.

    Existing studies of agricultural production largely neglect technology heterogeneity. However, the assumption of homogeneous production may result in inadequate policy implications. There is a growing literature on this issue. In this paper we contribute to this literature by modelling the effect of heterogeneous technologies and its impact on technological parameters and technical efficiency using a reformulated Random parameter Model. Our approach is based on the model developed by Alvarez et al. (2004). However, the original version of this model faces one crucial econometric problem: the assumption of independence of technical inefficiency and input variables does not, hence the estimated results are not necessarily consistent. Therefore we reformulate the model to allow for a more consistent estimation. Additionally, we examine the importance of the fulfilment of theoretical consistency: monotonicity and quasi-concavity. In order to fulfil these criteria we apply constrained maximum likelihood estimation, more specifically we build linear and non-linear constraints into the model and force it to yield theoretically consistent results, not only in the mean but also in different approximation points. For the empirical analysis we use farm level data from the Hungarian FADN Database. The results showed that considering technological differences is important. According to model selection criteria the modified Alvarez model with constraints was the preferred specification. Additionally, the results imply that the consideration of the effect of heterogeneous technologies on production potential and efficiency crucial in order to get adequate policy implication.

    The aim of this article is to analyse the technical efficiency of Hungarian crop farms between 2001 and 2009 using panel data. We employ both standard stochastic frontier analysis and latent class model (LCM) to estimate technical efficiency. Our results suggest that technological heterogeneity plays important role in crop sector which traditionally is assumed by homogeneous technology. The comparison of standard SFA models assuming that the technology is common to all farms and LCM estimates highlights that the efficiency of crop farms may be underestimated using traditional SFA models. -- heterogeneity ; latent class models ; crop farms
