A group of people moves onto a forested piece of land (which has no established owner), cuts down all the trees, and acquires all the lumber on the land. Thereafter, the land is farmed until all the mineral properties of the soil are depleted. Ultimately, the land becomes a barren desert property. This is an example of: O economic growth from agricultural innovation. O a lack of human capital leading to a depletion of a resource. O a lack of established property rights leading to the depletion of a resource. O inadequate capital stock.
