The TE of all farms surveyed was calculated, and farms were divided into six categories (efficient ¼ TE of 0.9e1.0, …, TE of 0.5e0.6). Based on this classification, only 17 of the 88 farms were considered to be efficient. The mean TE of all farms surveyed was 0.83, while that for inefficient farms was 0.80. These results emphasize that the same level of output could be produced with 80% of the resources if inefficient DMUs were performing on the efficient frontier, meaning that there is a potential to save 20% of overall resources by raising the performance of these DMUs to the highest level.
