Abstract

We analyze main sources of total factor productivity (TFP) growth from the regional manufacturing industry of Mexico in the long run, with a stochastic frontier and technical inefficiency models Battese and Coelli (1992, 1995), and apply a decomposition of TFP method as developed by Nishimizu and Page (1982) and Kumbhakar, Denny and Fuss (2000). One finding was that technological change and technical efficiency change are the main sources explaining observed trends in regional TFP of Mexico, between 1960 and 2013.
