AB  - In production economics, one of the most interesting questions is that ofthe causal relationship between technical
efficiency and allocative efficiency. This as yet remains a puzzle without aunique answer. There are a few theoretical analyses conceptualizing therelationship, but consensus has not yet been reached, and empirical tests arerare. Presents the empirical results of applying Granger’s (1969) andSims’ (1972) causality tests using time series data on technical andallocative efficiencies of random samples of Indian farmers. These causalitytests, with respect to technical and allocative
effciences show that there is unidirectional causality from
technical efficiency to allocative efficiency, and that the causative process is
not bidirectional.
