Investigation of Energy Use Efficiency for Dry Wheat Production Using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) Approach; Case Study: Silakhor Plain
In this research energy efficiency for dry wheat production in three levels including 0.1 up to2, 2.1 up to 5 and over 5.1 hectares for the farming year 2008-2009 in Silakhor plain located in Borujerd and Dorud divisions of Lorestan province was studied using data envelopment analysis (DEA) techniqu...

| description | In this research energy efficiency for dry wheat production in three levels including 0.1 up to2, 2.1 up to 5 and over 5.1 hectares for the farming year 2008-2009 in Silakhor plain located in Borujerd and Dorud divisions of Lorestan province was studied using data envelopment analysis (DEA) technique. The results showed that the input energy for seed, fertilizer and pesticides had the highest levels of energy consumption and the share of that in each studied level were 63.63, 56 and 54.07 percent respectively. The results of data envelopment analysis showed that the average of energy efficiency levels were 82, 78 and 68 percent, respectively. First level, that consumes more input energy than other two studied levels, had highest energy efficiency, because in this level output yield were more than other levels. Technical efficiency of inefficiency units in CRS model in three levels is 79%, 77% and 66% respectively. This issue indicates that 21, 23 and 34 of total energy input could be saved with upgrade efficiency in these units. All wrong using and also all share of total saved energy in three levels related to grain, fertilizer and pesticides and then fuel consumption. |
