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.

MoreLong description:
This groundbreaking guide delves into the innovative use of nuclear technologies to revolutionize global food systems and foster environmental sustainability. It explores new avenues within nuclear science, especially its contribution to reshaping agriculture, enhancing food security, and mitigating environmental challenges. Through innovative case studies and success stories, the chapters in this book examine nuclear applications ranging from radiochemistry in soil and crop management to radiation-based pest control.
The key themes highlighted in this book include the utilization of nuclear isotopes for soil fertility and water management, crop breeding for environmental resilience, and irradiation applications to ensure food security. Readers will gain innovative insights into how nuclear technologies can enhance agricultural productivity, reduce waste, and restore contaminated environments. Each chapter blends theoretical concepts with real-world applications, emphasizing practical knowledge to address global food insecurity and environmental degradation.
This is an essential resource for agricultural scientists, environmental researchers, policymakers, and students passionate about sustainable agriculture and conservation. It is equally valuable for nuclear industry professionals, educators, and anyone curious about how advanced technologies can create a greener, more resilient world.
