      abstract = {This article is primarily concerned with applying Data  Envelopment Analysis (DEA) for measuring the efficiency of  smallholders in Ethiopia. Two variants of DEA models,  Constant - returns-to scale (CRS) and variable-returns-to -  scale (VRS) are applied on individual farm level  cross-sectional data from three villages in Ethiopia The  empirical results of both measures show that the farmers in  the sample are more technically inefficient that scale  inefficient. This implies that policy should largely focus  on means of raising technical efficiency. Moreover the  results also indicate that there is regional variation in  the level of efficiency, suggesting selective policy  intervention based on the specific environment.},
