Description:
According to ABARES traditional productivity indicators (total factor productivity or TFP), productivity growth has historically been strong in the broadacre cropping sector. However, over the last decade, a significant slowdown in productivity growth has been observed. Interpreting these productivity trends and identifying potential policy responses remains difficult due to two key measurement issues. This study introduces two advances to ABARES standard TFP index methodology for measuring productivity change: the production of a climate-adjusted productivity index; and the decomposition of aggregate productivity change into several key pathways
