Abstract
The research adopted the stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) to model production function of paddy processing in Adamawa State, Nigeria based on 160 paddy processors stratified according to small, medium and large processors drawn from a multi-stage sampling technique. Output elasticity estimated for production variables conforms with a priori expectations in signs and significance as follows: paddy (X1) = 0.027 (p,0.05), labour (X2)=0.036 (p
