Abstract

L'approche non paramétrique Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) est utilisée pour mesurer l'efficacité technique. Différents modèles sont évalués à partir des données du Réseau d'information comptable agricole (RICA 1991) sur les exploitations porcines. L'azote organique, coproduit de l'activité d'élevage, peut être utilisé pour la fertilisation des cultures mais au-delà d'un certain niveau d'épandage, son utilisation peut concourir à la pollution des eaux de surface et des nappes phréatiques. Dans cet article, l'hypothèse de libre disposition de l'azote organique est affaiblie pour tenir compte du coût lié à l'élimination des pollutions. Les mesures de l'efficacité déterminées sous hypothèse de forte et de faible disponibilité de l'azote organique sont comparées, et l'utilisation de l'information duale fournie par l'approche DEA permet de donner un prix implicite de l'azote organique ; ce prix pouvant ensuite être comparé au coût unitaire des différentes techniques de traitement des déjections animales.
