Revue de presse

From a review of the first edition...

"I would recommend that agricultural economists involved in farm management instructions, research, and/or extension purchase a copy of this book. Not only would they find it enjoyable reading, but also some of the material undoubtedly could be useful in fulfilling their responsibilities. Instructors of college classes in farm management also should give serious considerations to its use as a text--rarely does a such well-written book become available for classroom use." Wesley N. Musser, American Journal of Agricultural Economics
