Abstract
This paper discusses the concept of a production function, its relation to the theory of supply and its use as a tool for economic analysis. In the second section there is a review of some of the measurement problems, described in the agricultural context. It includes one method that has been evolved to overcome these problems and presents some preliminary results of an attempt at measurement using this method. Mathematical notation has been kept to a minimum.
