Calculation and Analysis of Contribution Rate from Technology Advancement about Flue-cured Tobacco Production in Guizhou Province

摘要

Data was taken from Guizhou flue-cured tobacco production during 2001 to 2012 period. Cobb-Douglas production function model was exerted to calculate the contribution rate of technology advancement to flue-cured tobacco production and to analyze the relation between production factors and flue-cured tobacco output. Results show that the contribution rate of technology advancement to flue-cured tobacco production in Guizhou Province is 42.53%. Planting area is the most important factor to the production. Some measures on stable development of flue-cured tobacco production are proposed.
