Abstract: From the two perspectives of industrial operating performance and innovative output performance, by applying the input-oriented DEA model of constant returns to scale (CRS) and the super-efficiency method, this paper conducts an empirical analysis of the R&D efficiencies of resource-based industries in the twelve western provinces. The results indicate that under the existing level of output, the efficiency of R&D input of the resource-based industries in those provinces is relatively lower. The differences in industrial R&D strength, R&D management efficiency and operating performance created by R&D results from the same resource-based industries of those provinces lead to the different degree of contribution of R&D input within the same industry. Among the three factors, the difference in operating performance produced by R&D results is the major reason.
