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:
Tilapia Farming: Breeding Plans, Mass Seed Production, and Aquaculture Technologies provides the latest information on global tilapia farming, hatchery stock breeding, novel aquaculture technologies, feed and fish health management, and food safety and supply chain considerations. Immensely popular for its high nutritional value and low cost of production, tilapia has recently been recognized as the second most farmed fish worldwide. Given the increase in global tilapia production from 369,000 metric tons at the turn of the 21st century to about 6.8 million metric tons in 2020, this book serves as a critically important guide for hatchery operators and aquaculture entrepreneurs.
Written by a leading expert on aquaculture research and development, this book introduces readers to the global tilapia aquaculture industry and delivers key information on general and reproductive biology of tilapia. Early chapters explore brood stock management and the development and operation of mixed sex and monosex commercial tilapia seed production systems, semi-intensive culture systems, and intensive culture systems. Central chapters explore novel tilapia farming technologies, feed and feeding, major diseases, and tilapia health management. Final chapters discuss practical concepts in food safety, processing and trade, and future prospects of the industry.
Tilapia Farming: Breeding Plans, Mass Seed Production, and Aquaculture Technologies addresses novel information on the latest biological, technological, and supply chain considerations for tilapia aquaculture. It is an indispensable guide for applied scientists and aquaculture stakeholders worldwide.
