Abstract

This study evaluates the efficiency level of Selected Amil Zakat Institutions (OPZ) in Indonesia with a span of 2017–2021. Data Envelopment Analysis and Tobit Regression were employed to evaluate OPZ performances. The findings show that only two out of 14 OPZ in Indonesia have experienced perfect efficiency, i.e., LAGZIS Peduli in 2017 and LAZISNU in 2019-2021. The inefficiency that befalls OPZ in Indonesia mostly comes from the output variable, i.e., the collection and distribution of social funds. It is expected that OPZ in Indonesia can optimize the collection and distribution of social funds. Another unique finding is that the OPZ in Indonesia tends to stabilize its efficiency level during the COVID-19 pandemic, namely in 2020 and 2021. The Tobit regression shows that the factors of institution size and number of branch offices have a significant influence on the efficiency level of OPZ in Indonesia, inversely proportional to the factors of age and affiliation of Amil Zakat Institutions, which have no significant effect on the efficiency level of the institution

Abstract

Poverty is a complex issue faced by various countries, including Indonesia. One fiscal instrument in poverty alleviation efforts is the allocation of government public spending. Based on this policy, this research aims to analyze the efficiency of government expenditure in alleviating poverty. This study employs two methods: data envelopment analysis and panel data regression analysis. Government expenditure is proxied by education and health expenditure relative to total government spending. The estimation results of this research indicate that education expenditure has a significant negative effect. Meanwhile, health expenditure has a positive, albeit insignificant, effect on poverty. The contributions of this research include policy recommendations that the government should undertake within its fiscal capacity to address social issues such as poverty.

Abstract

The research method employs a DEA approach to measure the relative efficiency of each country in utilizing agricultural inputs to produce the desired outputs. The analysis was conducted to determine the annual average efficiency, the variation between countries, and the overall ranking based on the average efficiency over the study period. The analysis is further extended by measuring productivity using the Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI). The results reveal that several OIC countries, such as Egypt, Uzbekistan, and Yemen, consistently achieved full efficiency during the study period, while countries like Uganda and Afghanistan recorded persistently low efficiency levels. The MPI results show that overall productivity growth in OIC agriculture was driven mainly by technological progress rather than efficiency improvements. These findings indicate heterogeneous performance and underline the importance of technology adoption and governance quality in driving agricultural transformation. The results provide actionable insights for policymakers to design strategies enhancing agricultural efficiency, including regional cooperation, technological innovation, and institutional reforms to strengthen food security systems in OIC member states.
