Aquaculture and Wildlife Resources

Description

The group contributes to the development of new scientific knowledge on the economic, political, managerial and estimative aspects of the production, transformation, distribution, market and consumption of products from the primary sector (agriculture, forestry and fishing), agri-food economy and agro-biotechnologies, and their relationship with other components of the socio-economic and environmental system. The group is also dedicated to the study of the environmental impact assessment, the socio-economic development of rural areas, dynamics related to the interaction between cities and countryside and their urban development planning, and innovation processes on a territorial scale. Finally, the group is dedicated to research in land valuation, especially in the real estate sector, according both to the traditional Italian land valuation school and to the innovative approach. In both cases attention is also paid to national and international standards.
