PurposeTotal factor productivity (TFP) has become a prominent concept in agriculture economics and policy over the last three decades. The main aim of this paper is to obtain a detailed picture of the field via bibliometric analysis to identify research streams and future research agenda.Design/methodology/approachThe data sample consists of 472 papers in several bibliometric exercises. Citation and collaboration structure analyses are employed to identify most important authors and journals and track the interconnections between main authors and institutions. Next, content analysis based on bibliographic coupling is conducted to identify main research streams in TFP.FindingsThree research streams in agricultural TFP research were distinguished: TFP growth in developing countries in the context of policy reforms (1), TFP in the context of new challenges in agriculture (2) and finally, non-parametric TFP decomposition based on secondary data (3).Originality/valueThis research indicates agenda of future TFP research, in particular broadening the concept of TFP to the problems of policy, environment and technology in emerging countries. It provides description of the current state of the art in the agricultural TFP literature and can serve as a “guide” to the field.

“…The TFP is an implicit part of the circular income model present in economic theory: the price and quantity of products and services sold to consumers equals the remuneration of factors involved in the production of these goods and services (Hulten, 2001; Ferraz et al, 2018a). According to Comin (2006, p.…”

Paper aims: to analyze the international flow of students-both from developed and underdeveloped countries-and to observe their significance for the productivity gains of the country of origin of these students. Originality: The main contributions to the literature are the understanding of how student flows affect countries' economic growth, as well as to verify the systematic differences between the contribution of international student flows to economic growth between developed and underdeveloped countries. Research method: This empirical study performed using a data set of 87 countries, during 2001-2012 yields results that are in accordance with previous literature, supporting the hypothesis of international student flows as a significant channel of R&D spillovers from developed countries. The paper used econometric models already tested by previous studies. Main findings: The results show that BRICS countries may benefit more than other countries from such internationalization initiatives. Implications for theory and practice: The mobility of international students is currently an important political issue in the world. These formal or informal links between agents from diverse countries result in an exchange of ideas, experiences and knowledge potentially generating new business opportunities for developing economies.

“…Some authors (Hulten, 2001;Syverson, 2011) use productivity as outcome variable of measuring efficiency in firm-level. Competition between companies requires increase in technical efficiency (TE), while also improving service productivity (Costa, 2012;Ostrom et al, 2010).…”

Competitiveness of the State and social welfare are closely related to the effective use of production factors. Organisations that have achieved higher level of labour productivity are more competitive and beneficial for the State and society. Modern management methods have positive impact on labour productivity, therefore their application is supported. One of the promotion measures is "Procesas LT", under which business organisations are granted non-refundable subsidies for the implementation of modern management methods to increase labour productivity. Administrative institutions make decisions about granting funds of this promotion measure for the projects of business organizations, not taking into account macroeconomic factors that influence labour productivity as well. It has been determined that the counterfactual impact evaluation of this measure can be carried out in the enterprises that have been granted the support. The counterfactual impact evaluation of measure "Procesas LT" has been conducted as an empirical research in the enterprises of construction sector that have implemented the Occupational Health and Safety Management System in accordance with the requirements of standard OHSAS 18001. The authors of the research acknowledge Public Institution Lithuanian Business Support Agency for cooperation.
