ABOUT THE JOURNAL
AIMS AND SCOPE
Turkish Journal of Field Crops is the official publication of Society of Field Crops Science. It offers the latest developments in research to scientists active in field crops. The Journal includes only the original research papers on the following topics:
Breeding and Genetics
Agronomy
Physiology
Forage Crops
Medicinal and Aromatical Plants
Biotechnology
Utilization
High-Throughput Phenotyping / Smart Agriculture
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Field Crops must be based on well-defined experimental research conducted in accordance with appropriate experimental designs with adequate replication. Studies should be carried out under controlled field and/or greenhouse conditions, where treatments, experimental factors, and management practices are clearly described and allow for valid statistical analysis.
The journal does not consider for evaluation manuscripts that rely solely on:
samples collected from natural populations or habitats, or
materials obtained from farmers’ fields or commercial production areas,
when such studies lack a planned experimental design and replication. Accordingly, papers that primarily present and discuss analytical results derived from these types of samples, without controlled experimental implementation, fall outside the scope of the journal.
The Turkish Journal of Field Crops prioritizes research that ensures reproducibility, statistical rigor, and clear interpretation of treatment effects under experimentally controlled agronomic conditions.
