In addition, the findings revealed that age, education and experience of the household head had positive effects on environmental and technical efficiency scores. The factors related to the distance from farm to market and household size indicated a negative impact on technical efficiency as well as environmental efficiency. The results also investigated that solutions to improve technical and environmental efficiency of tea farms include technological change, education level as well as policy mechanisms.
