Abstract
En 中文
• Livestock efficiency varies significantly across 50 countries. • Meta-frontier reveals income-group technology gaps (TGR: 0.76–0.94). • TFP growth averages 2.0% annually, driven by efficiency change. • Lower-middle-income countries lead productivity growth at 2.8%. • Including CH4 and N2O emissions enables a comprehensive eco-efficiency assessment.
