Para autores como Fulginiti y Perrin (1998) o Nin y otros (2003) es posible que tanto los métodos como los datos hasta ahora empleados hayan interpretado de forma errónea la productividad de la agricultura en algunos países sesgando sus medidas. Este es precisamente el propósito de este trabajo y para ello se hará uso del desarrollo metodológico llevado a cabo por O&#8217;Donnell (2008) para intentar resolver los problemas anteriormente señalados y contrastarlo con los resultados de las metodologías no paramétricas tradicionales. Mediante índices transitivos de Lowe se estima el cambio de la Productividad Total de los Factores (TFP en inglés), en este caso de la agricultura de algunos países de América Latina para el período 1990-2006. Los resultados obtenidos cuestionan la evidencia empírica obtenida en estudios precedentes. Finalmente se confirma la hipótesis sobre las diferencias de resultados de la productividad cuando se estiman mediante el concurso del índice de Malmquist y el de índices de Lowe.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract The growth of agricultural productivity can have consequences that are not trivial at all at the time of improving subsistence consumption and increasing the income from this sector of the economy. For authors like Fulginiti and Perrin (1998) or Nin et al. (2003), it is possible that both the methods and the data used until now have interpreted erroneously the productivity of agriculture in some countries, biasing their measurements. This is precisely the aim of this study and to achieve it, the methodological development carried out by O&#8217;Donnell (2008) will be used, to attempt to solve the problems previously mentioned and to contrast them with the results from traditional non-parametric methodologies. Through Lowe transitive indices, the change in Total Factor Productivity (TFP) is estimated, in this case of agriculture in some countries of Latin America for the period of 1990-2006. The results obtained questioned the empirical evidence obtained in preceding studies. Finally, the hypothesis is confirmed about differences in results of productivity, when it is estimated through the contest of the Malmquist index and Lowe indices.]]></p></abstract>
