In this paper, we try to explain the effect of the farmer's education and the agefactor upon the gap with respect to optimal productivity of inputs used in the agricultureof region "04", Quebec. Two models are developed. One, the "worker effect", studies theeffect of education and age on labor productivity. The other, identified as the "allocativeeffect", attempts to describe the "worker effect" on the allocation of physical inputs. The results demonstrate that the impact of age and education on factor productivityvaries with farm size. In particular, while education shows increasing returns to scale,physical inputs tend to experience constant or even decreasing returns to scale. The study concludes by advocating the development of strategies aiming at offeringmore educational opportunities as well as better sources of information to farmers, so thatthey can improve their decision-making process and the over-all productivity of physicalinputs used on farms
