The main objective of this study is to assess Coffee Production Efficiency and The Extent of Market Participation the Case of Smallholder Farmers" in Sayo District. Both primary and secondary data were collected for data analysis. Primary data were generated from data collected using structured questionnaire. To select 384 smallholder farmers', a multi-stage sampling technique was applied. Both descriptive and econometric methods analyses were used for data analysis. Cobb-Douglass stochastic frontier production model was used to predict technical efficiency of coffee production at household level. The estimated technical efficiency for coffee producing farmers is equal to 64.9% and coffee land, estimated number of coffee tree owned, labour used for coffee farming, estimated age of coffee tree, and pesticide applied in liters were statistically and significantly affected coffee output at less than 5% significance level. Therefore, technical inefficiency among coffee producer farmers in study area is 35.1% and indicates possibility of increasing coffee productivity. The results of the Tobit regression model for factors affecting technical efficiency as well as determinants of the extent of participation in the coffee market are statistically and significantly influenced by the sex of the household head, the age of the household head, the landholding size, the number of extension visits, participation in off-farm and non-farm activities, and membership in iddir at a 1% and 5% significance level. Therefore, policies and strategies that can help farmers to further increase the land size allocated to coffee and increase the usage of pesticides increase coffee output to facilitate market participation and extent of commercialization of coffee produces.
