This paper studies the operational efficiency of the new sesame variety "da u" farmed by the Rural Development Administration. In the survey area--Gyeonggi-do Province, where sesame cultivation was the most intensive. Thirty farmers were surveyed by rural enterprises in the Yangpyeng area where 'da u' was planted. The efficiency of the operation was analyzed by studying the data of 30 farmers. In order to analyze the operational efficiency of the farmers, this survey used the DEA model for analysis in order to determine the technical efficiency of farmers. The result shows that the DEA technical efficiencies of most farmers are efficient, and only 6 farmers are inefficient. The reason for the inefficiency is the high cost of input factors. To analyze the determinants of efficiency through the Tobit model, reducing the pesticides and general fertilizers led to increased technical efficiency. This is inefficient use of pesticides and general fertilizers relative to the output factor, and efficient methods should reduce the cost issues.
