The results showed that the 20 provinces in the North East region had the average overall efficiency (Global Technical Efficiency: CRS model) valued 0.904. The average of Pure Technical Efficiency (VRS model) valued 0.949 and the average of Scale Efficiency (SE model) was 0.950. The result showed eight provinces applied all 7 production factors which were above what is expected.</p> ER -
