The mission of the journal is to create a supportive and dynamic community of scientists that brings ideas together and encourages discovery, with the aim of expanding and disseminating the knowledge base in the field of weed science (herbology). The journal aims to be a fundamental reference source for researchers working in the field of weed science (herbology).


It is expected that the articles to be published in the Turkish Journal of Weed Science are original and contain innovative information that will contribute to weed science in theoretical or practical terms. In this context, studies containing unverified findings related to preliminary research and/or lacking sufficient biological, physiological, ecological or similar data to support the results are not accepted.
