Description
Productivity and efficiency analysis can be used to guide policy development by providing insight into the relative performance of firms, and the drivers of industry growth and competitiveness. In this report, ABARES has applied stochastic frontier analysis to a novel dataset of sawmilling firms in 2016–17, allowing productivity to be measured and decomposed into various measures of efficiency. This study is the first comprehensive productivity and efficiency analysis of the Australian sawmilling industry at the mill level.
