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:
Essential Oil Bearing Plants: Agro-techniques, Phytochemicals, and Healthcare Applications provides a unique, comprehensive view of the plants which produce these valuable products, exploring optimal plant production. Environmental factors such as genetic factors, geographical origins, cultivation locations, environmental conditions, and nutritional status influence their secondary components. Moreover, water variability, temperature, salt, and metal stresses significantly impact the growth, yield, and EO production of these plants by adjustment of anatomical, morphological, and biochemical development.
This compilation increases the awareness of the essential oil plant species, their conservation, cultivation, and sustainable utilization. This deeper understanding of current science will aid in the efficient commercialization of products based on these plants, and will help identify knowledge gaps for future research.
- Presents insights from botany, agronomy, agriculture science, medicinal chemistry, biotechnology, molecular biology, and pharmacology
- Highlights agricultural practices for the cultivation and production of essential Oil-bearing plants
- Includes therapeutic properties and other medicinal applications
- Explores chemical composition and the extraction of phytochemicals
- Addresses the latest physiological, biotechnological, and molecular approaches
