Efficiency Measurement in Groundnut Production Using Data Envelopment Analysis

Abstract

Organizations aiming to be environmentally friendly while yet making a profit must prioritise efficiency. As a result of increased efficiency, a "win-win" scenario might occur. An assessment of ecoefficiency is necessary for studying and managing firms from this viewpoint. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is examined here to assist academics and management in developing measurements for environmental efficiency. Increases in the theory and use of DEA have occurred. It hasn't seen a lot of action as an assessment instrument for environmental performance. For practitioners and researchers alike, this article discusses several DEA models and how they might be used. Figure out the capabilities and limitations of the various models by using groundnut production data from an Indian agricultural data set as an example.
