Abstract
"It has long been known that migration and remittances contributed to the growth of agriculture. This study was conducted in East Champaran and West Champaran for paddy production. Multistage random sampling was applied to the study area. The study area was selected based on the annual production of Paddy in Bihar. Stochastic Frontier Analysis was applied to get an appropriate result for remittance on paddy farming. Our findings have important policy ramifications because they suggest that smallholder paddy production may become more technically efficient by using migrant labour’s remittances more frequently. By providing small-holder growers with continuously growing support from extension services, enough market access for selling their product, and farmer empowerment for women, the government may be able to increase the technical efficiency of smallholder rice farmers. Instructing farmers on correct weeding schedules, for instance, would be one way that effective extension services might enhance crop management practises."
