About the Journal

ISPEC Journal of Agricultural Sciences has been published 4 issues per year (March, June, September, December) by IKSAD (Institute of Economic Development and Social Research) since 2017.

The journal was established to present to the scientific community original studies in all fields of agriculture and agriculture-related sciences from Türkiye and all over the world, which have not been published or sent elsewhere for publication.

At least 2 or 3 external and independent referees who are experts in their fields are appointed by the section editor to evaluate the articles deemed appropriate. Each article is evaluated through a double-blind peer review process (neither the author nor the referee identities are disclosed). Articles sent to the authors along with the referee report should be corrected and sent back to the editor as soon as possible.

The journal accepts research articles online with the Open Journal System (OJS) and offers the articles in all issues to the service of stakeholders with unlimited access facilities. As it is known, Open Journal Systems increase the impact of articles by offering more qualified viewing opportunities to all readers on a national and international scale compared to subscription distribution systems. OJS systems also provide easy access to researchers in terms of indexing, retrieval, free access and duplication.

Every article published in the journal since 2020 has given a DOI (Digital Object Identifier) number.Since it is obligatory to provide ORCID numbers on articles accepted for publication, the "Title Page" must be filled completely in this sense in the article submission (upload) process.
