In multi-authored papers, it’s important that all authors that have made a significant contribution to the paper are listed. Those who have provided support but have not contributed to the research should be featured in an acknowledgements section.

Structured abstract

All submissions must include a structured abstract, following the format outlined below.
These four sub-headings and their accompanying explanations must always be included:

Purpose
Design/methodology/approach

Originality
The following three sub-headings are optional and can be included, if applicable:

Research limitations/implications
Practical implications
Social implications

Keywords

Your submission should include up to 6 appropriate and short keywords that capture the principal topics of the paper. 

Please note, while we will always try to use the keywords you’ve suggested, the in-house editorial team may replace some of them with matching terms to ensure consistency across publications and improve your article’s visibility.

Article classification

Research paper. Reports on any type of research undertaken by the author(s), including:

The construction or testing of a model or framework
Action research
Testing of data, market research or surveys
Empirical, scientific or clinical research
Papers with a practical focus
Viewpoint. Covers any paper where content is dependent on the author's opinion and interpretation. This includes journalistic and magazine-style pieces.

Literature review. This category should only be used if the main purpose of the paper is to annotate and/or critique the literature in a particular field. It could be a selective bibliography providing advice on information sources, or the paper may aim to cover the main contributors to the development of a topic and explore their different views.

Headings

Headings must be concise, with a clear indication of the required hierarchy.

The preferred format is for first level headings to be in bold, and subsequent sub-headings to be in medium italics.

Notes/endnotes

Notes or endnotes should only be used if absolutely necessary. They should be identified in the text by consecutive numbers enclosed in square brackets. These numbers should then be listed, and explained, at the end of the article.

Figures

All figures (charts, diagrams, line drawings, webpages/screenshots, and photographic images) should be submitted electronically. Both colour and black and white files are accepted.

There are a few other important points to note:

All figures should be supplied at the highest resolution/quality possible with numbers and text clearly legible.
Acceptable formats are .ai, .eps, .jpeg, .bmp, and .tif.
Electronic figures created in other applications should be supplied in their original formats and should also be either copied and pasted into a blank MS Word document, or submitted as a PDF file.
All figures should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals and have clear captions.
All photographs should be numbered as Plate 1, 2, 3, etc. and have clear captions.
Tables

Tables should be typed and submitted in a separate file to the main body of the article. The position of each table should be clearly labelled in the main body of the article with corresponding labels clearly shown in the table file. Tables should be numbered consecutively in Roman numerals (e.g. I, II, etc.).

Give each table a brief title. Ensure that any superscripts or asterisks are shown next to the relevant items and have explanations displayed as footnotes to the table, figure or plate.

References

All references in your manuscript must be formatted using one of the recognised Harvard styles. You are welcome to use the Harvard style Emerald has adopted – we’ve provided a detailed guide below. Want to use a different Harvard style? That’s fine, our typesetters will make any necessary changes to your manuscript if it is accepted. Please ensure you check all your citations for completeness, accuracy and consistency.

Emerald’s Harvard referencing style

References to other publications in your text should be written as follows:

Single author: (Adams, 2006)
Two authors: (Adams and Brown, 2006)
Three or more authors: (Adams et al., 2006) Please note, ‘et al' should always be written in italics.
A few other style points. These apply to both the main body of text and your final list of references.

When referring to pages in a publication, use ‘p.(page number)’ for a single page or ‘pp.(page numbers)’ to indicate a page range.
Page numbers should always be written out in full, e.g. 175-179, not 175-9.
Where a colon or dash appears in the title of an article or book chapter, the letter that follows that colon or dash should always be lower case.
When citing a work with multiple editors, use the abbreviation ‘Ed.s’.
At the end of your paper, please supply a reference list in alphabetical order using the style guidelines below. Where a DOI is available, this should be included at the end of the reference.

Exceptions to this rule are outlined in our pre-print and conference paper policies. If any substantial element of your paper has been previously published, you need to declare this to the journal editor upon submission. Please note, the journal editor may use iThenticate to check on the originality of submissions received. Our journal system will ask you to upload a print out of this program.

Your work should not have been submitted elsewhere and should not be under consideration by any other publication.

If you have a conflict of interest, you must declare it upon submission; this allows the editor to decide how they would like to proceed.

You must state that you have not committed any ethical violations in the manuscript you submit.

By submitting your work to Turkish Journal of Agricultural Economics, you are guaranteeing that the work is not in infringement of any existing copyright.
Third party copyright permissions
