Technical efficiency among agricultural households and determinants of food security in East Java, Indonesia

Abstract Rice is a staple food in East Java, and the average consumption is 100 kg/capita/year. However, rice productivity has declined dramatically in recent years. Food security can be reached by improving the technical efficiency of rice farming, especially in rice farming centers such as East Ja...
