Abstract

Manufacturing, the important industries in the Yangtze River Economic Belt, is a hot issue for many scholars to study. In this paper, Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) method is used for calculating the total factor productivity (TFP) of enterprises in the Yangtze River Economic Belt. The results show that TFP of manufacturing enterprises in these areas has gone through four stages of development: steady decline--decline--fast rise--maintenance from 2005 to 2014. As for industrial sectors, seven sectors including tobacco, textiles, leathers, furs, feathers, shoemaking and medicine manufacturing showed rise in TFP, and TFP of high-tech manufacturing enterprises increased while low or medium-tech declined.
