Abstract
In this study, we use the stochastic frontier production approach to split
the total productivity growth sources into technical progress and technical efficiency changes of the economic sectors in Tunisia between 1961
and 2014. Based on the sectors’ evolution, the analysis is centred on the
technological progress trend, the technical efficiency change, and the
role of productivity change in the economic growth. The empirical results
show that the production factors have a significant effect on productivity.
The review of the total factor productivity growth sources reveals that the
contribution of technological progress is the main source of this growth.
