Abstract: Los programas de certificacion ecologica no son sino programas de eco-etiquetado, maediante los cuales se certifica que los productos englobados en estat etiquetas cumplen una determinada normatica, que persigue funamentalmente la reduccion del impacto ambiental provocado por la actividad agraria. Mediante la utilizacion de metodos no parametricos de medidas de eficiencia (DEA), en este trabajo se pretende comparar la eficiencia tecnica de dos grupos de explotaciones cuyo cultivo principal es la vina, de dos sistemas de produccion agraria, agricultura convencional y ecologica. Esto se va a llevar a cabo desde dos perspectivas diferentes: considerando exc;usivamente la relacion entre factores y producto, en una primera fase, e incluyendo los impactos ambientales, en la segunda. la comparacion de los resultados obtenidos en estos escenarios nos permite avanzar algunas conclusiones sobre la eficiencia de la agricultura ecologica en condiciones de secano y cultivos perennes...Organic certification programs are eco-labelling programs, by which it is certified that these products comply with the regulations, who main aim is a reduction of the environmental impact provoked by agriculture. By means of DEA, in this work we calculate and compare the technical efficiency of two samples of conventional and organic vineyards, from two different perspectives: in the first instance, the relationship between inputs and outputs is considered, exclusively; in the first instance, the relationship between impacts arising from the activity are also included. The comparison of the results obtained in these two scenarios allows us to draw some conclusions on the efficiency of organic farming in dry-farming conditions and perennial crops.
