Özet
Canola production significantly increased in Turkey due to its high yield in recent years. In this study, the efficiency of canola production in Trakya region was determined by data envelopment analysis. Efficiency scores and differences were calculated from 100 canola producers. In the analysis, output variable is the total amount of canola production while land, labour, tractor pull-power, seed, nitrogen, diesel-fuel and pesticides were identified as input variables. The total, technical, and scale efficiency scores of canola production were calculated using input-oriented data envelopment analysis. The total efficiency score was 0.7544. Also, technical and scale efficiency scores were calculated as 0.8120 and 0.9268, respectively. 14 farmers have reached perfect efficiency. The average canola yield of frontier farmers had 382 kg/da and others had 310 kg/da.
