Performance Level Determination of Dairy Farms Usıng Dea

Abstract

In terms of technical and economic sustainability of milk production in the world, efŞciency analysis for dairy farms is important. Indeed, recent researchs about determining the performace of dairy farms in different regions in Turkey are attracted attention. In this study we determined the efŞciency levels of dairy farms in Aydın province. The determination of Şrm performance for agricultural Şrms has become increasingly important as in all Şrms. The most commonly used method for measuring the performance of a Şrm is to determine the level of efŞciency. In this study, efŞciency levels of dairy farms in Aydın were determined by data envelopment analysis. Analysis were made as output oriented with an output and Şve inputs, according to variable returns to scale and constant returns to scale models. Also, scale efŞciencies of the dairy farms were calculated. The amount of milk production was determined as output. Then the number of dairy cows, feed costs, labour, veterinary and drug costs and other expenses were determined as inputs. The means of the improvements about dairy farms were determined for the optimization of the output and inputs. The average values of the dairy farm efŞciencies were determined, by the variable returns to scale, constant returns to scale and scale efŞciency models, as 82%, 77%, 95% respectively. It was observed that the half part of the dairy farms operates decreasing returns to scale. It was conculed that the dairy farms can reduce their dairy cows by 0.7%, feed costs by 2%, labour by 16%, veterinary and drug costs by 11% and other expenses by 7%. The high level of the scale efŞciency indicates that, when dairy farms change their scales, their efŞciency levels will decrease. While the producers, educational level and forage production in the dairy farm affects efŞciency positively, exterior labor force effects negatively
