According to the primal method, a procedure that uses the Solow residual as an indicator of productivity, TFP grew at an average annual rate of 1.6%, adjusted for the quality and usage of the factors of production. According to the dual method, a procedure that considers estimations of the marginal productivities of the factors of production, TFP grew at an annual rate of 1.7%.spainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0ProductivityPrimalDualPeruSolow residualinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://purl.org/pe-repo/ocde/ford#5.02.01https://doi.org/10.18800/economia.201401.001
