This paper is an attempt to compare the efficiency between pure Islamic banks and Islamic bank windows of conventional
banks. It also explains the role of Islamic banks in agriculture sector. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) was used to find out

time. The cost, allocative, scale and technical efficiencies of pure Islamic banks are higher than Islamic banking windows of
conventional banks; however, income efficiency is higher in the case of Islamic bank windows. In agriculture sector, Islamic
banking provides equal opportunities to all farm size groups with its unique products. Especially the small farmers can
