11. The main text of the article should be prepared under the main headings of Introduction, Materials and Methods, Research Findings, Discussion, Conclusion and References according to the language of the article (Turkish and English). If desired, Research Findings and Discussion sections can be written under a single heading.
12. If the research envisages data collection through surveys, interviews, focus group studies, etc., ethics committee approval must be obtained from the ethics committees established for human research, it must be stated as a text in the materials and methods section of the research and under the heading "ethics statement" before the bibliography at the end of the research.
Ethics Statement:
……………………….. The .......... of the Ethics Committee History and ........... (Protocol No: ..........Approval No: ...). etc.

13. Article titles; First-level headings in the article should be left-aligned, bold, 12-point and capitalized. Second-level headings should be bold, left-justified, and only the first letter of the first word should be capitalized (in sentence order) 12-point. Although third-level headings are not recommended, they can be used if necessary and should be left-justified and only the first letter of the first word should be written in capital italics, 12 points. Section headings should be used at the third level at most.
14. Decimal numbers in the article should be separated by a dot.
15. Graphics, maps, photographs, pictures and similar presentations should be named “Figure", and the assignment of numerical values should be named "Table". All tables and pictures given should be cited in the text, and figures and tables should be given in the article. Large and colorful shapes and pictures should be avoided. In the numbering and explanation of figures and tables, a period should be used after the number and the part up to this point (including the period) should be written in bold. Figure titles should be below the figure, table titles should be left-justified above the table. The data in the image must be legible.
Tables should be prepared as editable text in MS Office files. Statistical result charts should not be in the form of pictures. Tables and figures are placed in the relevant text in the article. Tables and figures should be numbered consecutively according to their appearance in the text. Explanations and/or references to be included in the table should be placed at the bottom of the table body. Tables and figures should be centered on the page. Table content and headings should not be smaller than 8 points. In tables, the lines between columns, on the right, and on the left should be invisible. The numerical data in the text should be aligned and right-aligned, with consistent decimal distinctions.
16. Formulas should be numbered consecutively in the text. Subscripts and superscripts should be clear. The equations should be numbered serially on the right-hand side. If equations are to be included in the study text, they should be given with two cells in a single-line table with hidden borders. The equation should be added to the left cell and this cell should be centered. The right cell should contain the equation number and this cell should be right-justified, large enough to fit only the equation number. After the equation is written, the table lines should be made invisible.
17. In terms of the effectiveness of the literature review in research articles, it is recommended to cite at least 10 original articles on the subject.
18. Writing rules and process in articles prepared using review/bibliometric analysis/qualitative analysis methods are the same as in research articles. However, Review articles must contain at least 20 references, at least 75% of which belong to the last 10 years, and must not have been published in any publication before. In addition, there is no obligation to use other headings except the Introduction and Conclusion main headings in review articles. The author can determine the titles in review articles himself/herself, but the abstract is written in a structured manner as in a research article. A number of reviews can be published, and studies made using bibliometric analysis and/or qualitative analysis methods can be published. A maximum of two articles can be published in each issue, depending on the number of articles in that issue.
19. Citing the research published in the previous issues of the journal in the articles to be published in the Journal of Agricultural Economics is of great importance in terms of contributing to the scanning of our journal in international citation indexes.
20. Articles should be prepared in accordance with the Harvard reference system (Emerald's Harvard referencing style), citation and referencing rules. In the citations in the article, the "author and date" system should be used, except in special cases. If more than one source is to be cited at the same time, the publications should be separated by semicolons and given in chronological order. For example: (Surname, 2002; Surname et al., 2009; Surname, 2010; Surname and Surname, 2012). In works with two authors, the names of the authors should be separated by "and" (in sources written in a foreign language, "and"), in works with multiple authors, "et al." (in foreign language sources, "et al.") should be used. For example: (Surname, 2007), (Surname and Surname, 2005), (Surname et al., 2003). Multiple uses of publications with more than one author or a single author should also be in historical order, and in the use of many publications in the same year, alphabetical order depending on the first author should be taken into account. For example: (Shooter and Gift, 2019; Yercan and Kınıklı, 2019). When citing different sources published in the same year belonging to the same author/institution/etc., alphabet letters should be used after the year.


Examples
…… about teaching quality (Berk, 2013). ……. SET administration (Avery et al., 2006). ……..on average student ratings (Griffin et al., 2014; Nulty, 2008; Spooren et al., 2013). …… evaluate SET scores (Boysen, 2015a, 2015b; Boysen et al., 2014; Dewar, 2011).
21. All literature mentioned in the text should be included in the "References List". A work that is not cited in the text should not be included in the reference list. The list of references should be given in alphabetical order and according to the author-date system. If two or more publications by the same author are used, the old publication should be given first in the References List. The first letter of each word of the book and book chapter's name must be capitalized. If the publications of an organization are published, they should be given with the publication number, if not, the name and city of the printing house where they were printed should be specified. The name of the journal in which the literature was published should be written clearly without abbreviation. The writing of the references should be 9 pt Times New Roman, the first line should be justified to the left, the following lines should be pulled in 1 cm (hanging). Examples of literature writing are given below. (Emerald's Harvard referencing style)
