description Recent empirical evidence suggest that real money balances can be treated as a productive input in production. The reason for incorporating real money balances as a factor of production is because real money balances as a medium of exchange facilitate adjustments between capital and labour for specialization purposes and thus increase productivity.

The results suggest that real money balances play significant role as a productive input in the production function of the Malaysian agricultural sector.
