This paper analyses technical efficiency of peanut growing farms in Turkey. Data were collected from farms through a questionnaire study carried out following 2000-2001 growing season. Analysis was accomplished in two steps. In the first step, technical efficiency scores were calculated employing an input oriented Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). In the second step, Tobit regression analysis was used to identify determinants of technical efficiency. Results indicate that peanut farmers can save inputs by at least 8% while remaining at the same production level. Factors strongly affecting efficiency level of the farmers were found to be farmer age, peanut specific farming experience, farm location, overall farm size.(original abstract)

W artykule przedstawiono wydajność techniczną gospodarstw rolnych z uprawą orzeszków ziemnych w Turcji. Dane zebrano w trakcie badań przeprowadzonych w sezonie 2000-2001. Analizę przeprowadzono w dwóch etapach. W pierwszym etapie, wyniki technicznej efektywności obliczono przy zastosowaniu zorientowanej na nakłady granicznej analizy danych (DEA). W drugim etapie, zastosowano analizę regresji Tobit w celu zidentyfikowania determinantów technicznej wydajności. Wyniki wskazują, że rolnicy uprawiający orzeszki ziemne mogą zaoszczędzić ok. 8% nakładów przy nie zmienionym poziomie produkcji. Wśród czynników mających silny wpływ na poziom wydajności produkcji wyszczególniono wiek rolnika, doświadczenie w uprawie orzecha ziemnego, położenie gospodarstwa rolnego oraz ogólną powierzchnię gospodarstwa.(abstrakt oryginalny)
