Abstract: This paper analyses the effect of single farm payments (SFPs) introduced bythe Luxembourg agreements (2003) of the Common Agricultural Policy, on theperformance of crop farms in Eure-et-Loir, France, over the period 2005–2008. Tech-nical inefficiency scores of these crop farms are first estimated. Then, the estimatedtechnical inefficiency scores are regressed on SFPs received by farmers following astandard two-step procedure. The analysis shows a negative effect of SFPs on thetechnical inefficiency of Eure-et-Loir farms. This implies that subsidies granted tofarms without production restrictions seem to reduce technical inefficiency
