Abstract:Endogenous economic growth theory has always stressed and valued the contribution of education to the growth of economy,and contribution of health to economy has not got enough attention.In order to study the effect of rural education and health on technical efficiency of agricultural production,this paper,using stochastic frontier model,positively analyzes the data of input and output of agriculture and data of rural human capital of China from 1999 to 2009.The result shows that rural human capital reduces technical inefficiency of agricultural production,and enhances the technical efficiency of agricultural production and agricultural output.Compared with education,currently,health can reduce technical inefficiency of agricultural production to a large extent.However,with the progress of society and the development of science and technology,role of education in promoting technical efficiency will surpass health.Therefore,people with good health as well as good education will surely push forward higher technical efficiency of agricultural production.
