Abstract

Lorsque des effets externes de production sont associés à l'utilisation d'inputs particuliers, la résorption de l'inefficacité technique par le biais d'une réduction de ces inputs représente un mode d'internalisation où l'intérêt privé de l'agent rejoint l'intérêt social. Ce document utilise l'approche DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) pour estimer les réductions potentielles d'intrants polluants au sein d'un échantillon d'exploitation céréalière.
