Abstrakt: This research aimed to find out how profitable olive farms are in the Bashiqa district of Nineveh province, which is known as the best place in Iraq to grow olives. The technical and allocative parts for the sample farms during the 2021 growing season were calculated using the data envelope analysis (DEA) method. This was done by looking at the inputs and outputs and assuming a change (VRS) and constant volume returns (CRS) for all farms in the study sample. Also, finding out how much waste there is in the use of productive resources and estimating the volumetric efficiency of farms were all done by sending a questionnaire to 170 fruitful farms at random. The results showed that the questionnaire was very useful for getting information about these things. It is made up of 25% of the people in the study. When we looked at economic efficiency and its parts, one of the most important things we found was that the sample farms’ average technical efficiency was 0.949 and their allocative efficiency was 0.787. This means that there is some waste in the way resources are used and costs are allocated. It was 0.832 for economic efficiency. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
