      abstract = {The paper analyzes the deforestation problem and its  Sustainable Local Development (SLD) impact, during  1998-2005 periods.   A stochastic frontier production  function is defined for panel data of farm-specific  variables.  The inefficiency effects are assumed to be  independently distributed as truncations of normal  distributions with constant variance, but with means which  are a linear function of observable variables.  Panel Data  was chosen between social and environment variable of the  data base of EMNV’98-05.

The results proof that the  deforestation problem is explicated by household social  expenditure and the poverty.  The mean technical efficiency  was 25 %, and the poverty reach significant level for  explaining technical inefficiency on the stochastic  frontier model.  The technical efficiency by year was 33 %,  36 % y 5.6 during 1998, 2001 y 2005 respectively.   With  these considerations, I suggest an educational and  specialization process lying on the environment policy for  reducing the farmer’s problem effects.},
