Stata and R packages for Production Function and Markup Estimation.

prodest in Stata (Rovigatti et al., SJ 2018 or Mollisi et al., 2017 - WP version) is available on the SSC archive - type ssc install prodest to install the latest stable version.

prodest in R (Rovigatti, 2017) is available on the CRAN - type install.packages("prodest") to install the latest stable version.
