Resumen de Incorporating environmental externalities in total factor productivity analysis: The case of soil erosion in Nigerian agriculture
In this study, we argue that conventional methods of measuring agricultural productivity which only use information abaut marketed inputs and outputs does not give a true representation of how sustainable the activities of the sector are. Motivated by the Solow-type growth accounting framework, we use the Törnqvist indez formula to construct, input, output and TFP indices for Nigerian agriculture between 1980 and 2010.
