Reviews
I would not have an Agriscience library without this text. I insist that all the agriculture classes have enough copies of this text on their shelves. When all else fails turn to the Agriscience and Fundamental book, it has a great amount of general background information that is very easy for the student to understand and give a great foundation of agriculture information.

    A+++ seller. Lightning quick delivery and the discs were packed wonderfully. Items were as described and the price as nice for 3 discs combined. Would gladly do business with them again.

    Incredibly fast shipping (order arrived next day!), great packaging, item as described with great photos (including well photographed and communicated item imperfections—no surprises). Price was very fairly negotiated as well. Would happily buy from this seller again.
