Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this paper, we try to explain the effect of the farmer's education and the age factor upon the gap with respect to optimal productivity of inputs used in the agriculture of region "04", Quebec. Two models are developed. One, the "worker effect", studies the effect of education and age on labor productivity. The other, identified as the "allocative effect", attempts to describe the "worker effect" on the allocation of physical inputs. The results demonstrate that the impact of age and education on factor productivity varies with farm size. In particular, while education shows increasing returns to scale, physical inputs tend to experience constant or even decreasing returns to scale. The study concludes by advocating the development of strategies aiming at offering more educational opportunities as well as better sources of information to farmers, so that they can improve their decision-making process and the over-all productivity of physical inputs used on farms.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
