000174311 520__ $$aThis study estimates frontier production functions with cross-section data for the Spanish agrofood industry by using deterministic and
stochastic parametric approaches. We compute the individual technical efficiency for each firm, compare the results and explain the
relationship between technical efficiency and other relevant quantitative variables. The results indicate that the Spanish agrofood industry
has a level of efficiency between 68% and 93%; which means that it is potentially capable of increasing production without increasing its
consumption of inputs. This efficiency level is positively related to factor productivity and unitary labour costs.
