MSc Thesis on Economic Efficiency and the Determinants in Major Food Crops Production

Ethiopian agriculture is characterized by its subsistence and low productivity and hence low level of efficiency that leads to food insecurity. Therefore, this study was undertaken with an objective of providing empirical evidence on the TE, AE and EE levels of major food crops (wheat, barley maize and teff) production in Albuko woreda using data collected from 151 randomly selected sample respondents during 2016/17 production year. Applying the a parametric Cobb Douglas SFA, the MLE result revealed that elasticities of inputs included to the production were statistically significant implying increase in these inputs will increase output and the average TE, AE and EE levels of households is found to be 73.49%, 54.61% and 38.01% respectively. The average efficiency levels entails that, food crops producing farmers in the study area have a yield potential and cost saving advantage for the available inputs. Further, this paper explored those factors that influence the efficiency levels by employing Tobit regression model. Thereby the outcome revealed that education level, farming experience and family size were found as to be positive and significant factors affecting TE whereas proximity is found to be a significant factor influencing TE negatively. The study also revealed that AE is influenced by education level, credit received, access to extension service and off farm income positively and significantly while land fragmentation and farm land owned negatively and significantly. Further, the study revealed that education level, credit received, access to extension service and off farm income were factors positively and significantly influencing EE while age, farm size and land fragmentation were found to be negative and significant factors. Thus, it is recommended that for improved efficiency levels there is need for better policies and strategies that gives due attention on expansion of education, provision of credit and extension service focusing on efficient use of resources, and generation of off farm income side by side to farming activity. Furthermore, arranging farmers in groups can play vital role in experience and knowledge sharing among them. Key words: Food crops; stochastic frontier; Wheat Equivalent Yield; economic efficiency;

MSc in Agriculture

• Agriculture
• Programme Structure

Programme Structure

The MSc programme in Agriculture consists of compulsory courses depending on your specialisation, restricted elective and elective courses, and a thesis.

Do a Project in Practice or Study Abroad

As part of your programme you may choose to do a project in practice or to study abroad for one or two semesters or for a shorter period.

Teaching and Learning Methods

We emphasize student learning of scientific and professional competencies, and we have a long tradition for close contact between students and teachers and their research groups.

Most courses include a combination of lectures, exercises, group or individual projects, individual readings, excursions, and field work. In both specialisations the programme starts with a compulsory course.

Specialisations

When you enroll in the programme you are required to choose between two specialisations. You can read more about the specialisations below:

Plant Science

In the Plant Science specialisation you work with individual plants and plant products, from genes to traits, genetic resources, quality parameters and postharvest biology, plant functions in relation to agricultural and horticultural production and use of plants.

Central topics are physiological and molecular methods to improve plant performance, plant responses to internal and external growth factors, interaction of plants and other organisms, nutritional composition of food, feed, energy, high value crops and ornamental plants.

In the compulsory course "Experimental Plant Science" (15 ECTS) you gain experience in conducting experimental work in plant science on the basis of your previous acquired knowledge and skills. The course covers a range of established methods, state-of-the art and cutting-edge technologies used to study plants, their development and function. The course runs over two blocks to allow studying the processes involved in growth and development of plants over longer time periods.

The aim of the course is to give in depth knowledge and understanding of key physiological and molecular function of plants and plant organs, from molecular and cellular perspectives to whole plant level. Learning, understanding, and practice is obtained by combining knowledge about plants within a number of selected themes with appropriate methods and technologies used to analyse plants and plant products.

Restricted elective courses are key courses which you select from the list of relevant courses (see list below). To ensure the focus on plant application you must choose at least one course with a production perspective. A Project in Practice can be included as a credit activity.  

The elective courses allow you to create your own academic and professional profile. You can choose courses which either deepen or broaden your competencies. Elective courses can be followed either at The Faculty of Science, at one of the other faculties at the University of Copenhagen or at other Danish and international universities.

Master's Thesis

You complete your programme with a thesis worth 45 or 60 ECTS on an issue or a scientific problem within your core area of interest.

The thesis involves independent experimental work or collection and analysis of data. It is often carried out in collaboration with a research group or with external partners e.g., private firms, proposing problems for which solutions are needed.

The Plant Science specialisation can be structured in four different ways, depending on whether you write a thesis worth 45 or 60 ECTS and whether you start in September or February.

Programme Overview, Study Start September, Thesis 45 ECTS

Compulsory courses: 15 ECTS Restricted elective courses: 37.5 ECTS Elective courses: 22.5 ECTS Master's thesis: 45 ECTS

Production and Environment

In the specialisation Production and Environment, you work with production systems, both in the field and in protected cultivation.

Your focus is on designing and managing economically viable and environmentally sound production systems, aiming for wise use of natural resources, biodiversity protection, and the provision of ecological services.

The major focus is on agricultural and horticultural systems in the European natural and regulatory context. In the compulsory course at the end of the first year you collaborate with a partner enterprise in food production.

In the compulsory course "Advanced Crop Production" in the first block of the programme you work with the improvement of crop production within modern cropping systems, mainly in temperate areas of the world. The course includes visits to Danish case farms with access to detailed farm data which enables you to analyze the complex, real-life problems within crop production.

The intensive course "European Farm and Food Systems" at the end of year 1 brings together the knowledge and skills you acquired in previous courses. In a three-week field work trip where you go off campus and engage in a real-life case (e.g., a large vegetable producer).

You learn to employ a structured work process to identify potential areas of improvement through interactions with key stakeholders. The teaching and learning environment is experimental (learning by doing) and interactive (involving stakeholders).

Restricted elective courses are key courses which you select from the list of courses in the curriculum (see list below). A Project in Practice can be included as a credit activity.

The elective courses allow you to create your own academic and professional profile. You can choose courses which either deepen or broaden your competences. Courses can be followed either at The Faculty of Science, at one of the other faculties at the University of Copenhagen or at other Danish and international universities.

You complete your programme with a thesis worth 30 or 45 ECTS credits on an issue or a scientific problem. The thesis often involves independent experimental work or collection and analysis of data. It can be carried out in collaboration with a research group or with external partners e.g., firms, public partners, or organisations with proposals for problems to which solutions are needed. 

The specialisation in Production and Environment can be structured in four different ways, depending on whether you write a thesis worth 30 or 45 ECTS and whether you start in September or February.
