Abstract

This research, provides an empirical application of nonparametric techniques to determine whether agricultural production behavior in the U.S. and ten farm production regions over the period 1939 to 1982 has been inconsistent with the joint hypothesis of profit maximization, convex technology, and monotonic nonregressive technical change.
