Research, extension and public policies in Brazilian agriculture

This study used a non-parametric production frontier model for measuring the agricultural production of Brazilian municipalities. By using fractional regression models, the study evaluated the intensity of the association between technical efficiency of production and contextual constructs, which represents measures that reflect Embrapa’s line of research; technical assistance to rural areas; and typical items of ways of delivering public policies. It was concluded that, in fact, these “typical items” are the only ones statistically significant for the improvement of production efficiency in Brazilian rural areas.

Neste estudo, utilizou-se uma fronteira de produção do tipo não paramétrica na avaliação da produção agrícola dos municípios brasileiros. Com o uso de métodos de regressão fracionária, caracterizou-se a intensidade da associação entre eficiência técnica de produção e construtos contextuais, que representam medidas que refletem o direcionamento da pesquisa da Embrapa, a assistência técnica ao meio rural e itens típicos de formas de entrega de políticas públicas. Concluiu-se que estes, na realidade, são os únicos estatisticamente significantes para a melhoria da eficiência de produção no meio rural brasileiro.
