EFFICIENCY ANALYSIS OF SOLID BULK TERMINALS USING DEA METHOD

The current work presents a study of the relative efficiency of Brazilian solid bulk terminals using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method. For this purpose, 27 terminals were selected, which eight of those import coal, nine export iron ore and ten export soybeans, and adopted four inputs and t...

Description
Summary:The current work presents a study of the relative efficiency of Brazilian solid bulk terminals using the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method. For this purpose, 27 terminals were selected, which eight of those import coal, nine export iron ore and ten export soybeans, and adopted four inputs and two outputs. The results showed a trend for higher efficiency of exporting terminals than the importers.
