Blind peer-review is a method used for the publication of scientific publications with the highest quality. This method is the basis of the objective evaluation of scientific studies and is preferred by many scientific journals. The opinions of the peer reviewers have a decisive role in the publication quality of the International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences. All studies submitted to the International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences are evaluated through blanking according to the following stages. The International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences uses the double-blind method in the evaluation process of all studies. In the double-blind method, the author and peer reviewer identities of the studies are hidden.
The works are sent to the peer reviewers according to their content and peer reviewer’s specialties. The editor of the department, who reviewed the study, proposes at least two peer reviewers from the peer reviewer pool of the International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences, or new peer reviewers appropriate to the area of the study. It may suggest. The suggestions of the peer reviewers from the department editor are evaluated by the editors and the works are forwarded to the peer reviewers. The peer reviewers have no process and guarantee that they will not share the document.
The articles submitted to the International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences are first evaluated by the editors. At this stage, studies that do not meet the aim and scope of the journal, which are weak in terms of language and expression rules in English, that contain scientifically critical errors, have no original value and do not meet the publication policies are rejected. Authors of rejected studies are notified within two weeks of the submission date. Appropriate studies are sent to a Department editor for preliminary evaluation.
Preliminary Evaluation Process
In the pre-evaluation process, the editors of the department examine the introduction, materials and methods, findings, conclusions, evaluation and discussion sections in detail in terms of International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences publication policies and scope and originality. Not eligible as a result of this review. The studies are returned within 4 weeks at the latest with the evaluation report of the department editor.
The International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences does not accept sponsorship and advertising in terms of publishing policies.
The relationship between editors and publisher is based on the principle of editorial independence. As per the written agreement between the editors and the publisher, all decisions of the editors are independent of the publisher and the journal owner.
Editorial and blind arbitration processes
Editors; The journal is obliged to implement the "Blind Arbitration and Evaluation Process" policies in the publication policies. In this context, the editors ensure that the fair, impartial and timely evaluation of each work is completed.
Where we are made aware of fraudulent research or research misconduct by a Edit Publishing author, our first concern is the integrity of content we have published. We work with the relevant editor(s), COPE, and other appropriate institutions or organizations, to investigate. Any publication found to include fraudulent results will be retracted, or an appropriate correction or expression of concern will be issued. Please see the Retractions, Corrections and Expressions of Concern section of these guidelines for more information.
International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences editors will consider retractions, corrections or expressions of concern in line with COPE’s Retraction Guidelines. If an author is found to have made an error, the journal will issue a corrigendum. If the journal is found to have made an error, they will issue an erratum. Retractions are usually reserved for articles that are so seriously flawed that their findings or conclusions should not be relied upon. Journals that publish Accepted Manuscripts may make minor changes such as those which would likely occur during typesetting or proofreading, but any substantive corrections will be carried out in line with COPE’s Retraction Guidelines. In the case of books, if someone raises a legal, ethical or security concern about a Edit Publishing publication, we would inform the author(s) and editor(s) involved. Our next step would be to investigate the concern and, if appropriate, address it through dialogue or negotiation with any third parties involved or by referring it to a relevant institution for investigation. If the concern relates to the integrity or accuracy of the content itself, we would consider issuing a correction, or a retraction and withdrawal from sale. Where any content is retracted, we would do so in a way that still preserves the integrity of the academic record and of other affiliated works (for example, other volumes in a series). This includes maintaining any associated metadata and, if legally possible, the abstract. We also participate in CrossMark; a multi-publisher initiative to provide a standard way for readers to locate the current version of a piece of content, view any changes that have occurred, and access additional information about that publication record.
International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences strive to follow COPE’s Principles of Transparency and Best Practice in Scholarly Publishing and encourage our publishing partners to uphold these same principles.
The author(s) wishing to request a withdrawal of his/her work during the evaluation phase are obliged to forward the petition containing the request for withdrawal of the article, signed and scanned with the signature of each author, to the editorial board via editor@jaefs.com via e-mail. The Editorial Board reviews the withdrawal notification and returns within one week at the latest. Authors cannot send their manuscript to another journal for evaluation unless the request for withdrawal of the works whose copyrights have been transferred by the editorial board of the International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences is submitted.
Where research data are collected or presented as images, modifying these images can sometimes misrepresent the results obtained or their significance. We recognise that there can be legitimate reasons for modifying images, but we expect authors to avoid modifying images where this leads to the falsification, fabrication, or misrepresentation of their results.
International Journal of Agriculture, Environment and Food Sciences are distributed in many different global cultural, environmental and economic contexts. We may therefore issue different versions of some of our products in order to cater to these contexts. We neither modify existing, published content nor originate new materials to meet political or ideological requirements where we judge these to compromise the quality, effectiveness or factual accuracy of the materials or to conflict with our Code of Ethics. We grant licenses in volume and subsidiary rights to third-parties which permit the reproduction, reuse or adaptation of our content in different contexts, languages and territories. Where we license volume rights, we and our authors retain the right to withhold approval for publication if we have concerns about the integrity and accuracy of the licensed edition.
We support transparency and openness around data, code, and other materials associated with research. We expect authors to maintain accurate records of supporting evidence necessary to allow others to understand, verify, and replicate new findings, and to supply or provide access to this supporting evidence, on reasonable request. Where appropriate and where allowed by employer, funding body or others who might have an interest, we encourage authors to deposit data in a suitable repository or storage location, for sharing and further use by others. Edit Publishing aims to provide authors with the ability to connect supporting data with their manuscripts, either on our own platform or through third party services.
