    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    A growing concern for environmental quality and resource scarcity has led to numerous policy debates regarding resource utilization around the world. This is especially true when it comes to resource utilization in agriculture. This textbook strives to bring together economic theory and resource-specific problems of agriculture. It includes aggregate- and micro-level models and examples for most resource and environmental issues. Although the book's emphasis is on
    cropland agriculture, there are also examples from livestock, poultry, grazing, fisheries, orchards, and forestry.

    This book will be most useful as a source of material on environmental and resource economics in the classroom and as a textbook for beginning graduate students ... the book can be highly recommended to all policy analysts, researchers and practitioners interested in agricultural resource economics irrespective of their background knowledge in this field.
