Due to the increasing number of international students who are
interested in the field of agricultural marketing, the authors of the
book decided to publish a specialized book which focuses on connecting
the theoretical background to the practical aspects of marketing. Our
effort resulted in a book titled “Principles of Agrimarketing” that
targets not only undergraduate students but professionals as well. This
book is for everybody who are interested in selling and buying
agricultural and food products in a successful way.
