 We propose and study a maximum likelihood estimator of stochastic frontier models with endogeneity in cross-section data when the composite error term may be correlated with inputs and environmental variables. Our framework is a generalization of the normal half-normal stochastic frontier model with endogeneity. We derive the likelihood function in closed form using three fundamental assumptions: the existence of control functions that fully capture the dependence between regressors and unobservables
  the conditional independence of the two error components given the control functions
  and the conditional distribution of the stochastic inefficiency term given the control functions being a folded normal distribution. We also provide a Battese-Coelli estimator of technical efficiency. Our estimator is computationally fast and easy to implement. We study some of its asymptotic properties, and we showcase its finite sample behavior in Monte-Carlo simulations and an empirical application to farmers in Nepal.
