Article: Performance of Ba Che Camellia Chrysantha farms Journal: International Journal of Agriculture Innovation, Technology and Globalisation (IJAITG) 2024 Vol.4 No.3 pp.243 - 256 Abstract: This study uniquely applies the Malmquist Index and Tobit regression analysis to assess the efficiency of 175 Camellia Chrysantha farms in Ba Che district, Quang Ninh province, Vietnam, offering a novel evaluation of this economically significant crop. The research identifies that farms in Dap Thanh, Ba Che town, and Luong Mong achieved notable efficiency with total factor productivity changes of 118.8%, 103.3%, and 102.2%, respectively, while other areas demonstrated lower efficiency. Factors such as the owner's age, education, and access to information were found to significantly influence farm performance, with older and better-educated owners managing more efficient operations. The study highlights the critical role of technological adoption and continuous learning in optimising farm productivity, providing valuable insights for enhancing agricultural practices in the region. This research is distinctive in its comprehensive analysis of efficiency drivers in Camellia Chrysantha cultivation, contributing to the development of sustainable agricultural strategies in high-yield areas.
