EDITORIAL POLICY

Preprints

 

We inform that the Engenharia Agrícola Journal does not recommend publication in preprint, considering that preprints share with Journals the originality in the publication of manuscripts and inhibit the use of the double blind procedure in evaluating manuscripts. However, we suggest that the authors who are interested in this form of publication use reliable platforms recognized by SciELO and inform the Journal about this practice, formatting the manuscript in accordance with our Journal's standards.

 

 

Peer Review Process

 

The purpose of the evaluation is to help authors improve the quality of their work by providing constructive and timely evaluations prepared by experienced reviewers from renowned institutions. Engenharia Agrícola considers the evaluation process to be a fundamental step for the improvement of manuscripts. For this reason, Engenharia Agrícola reviewers are encouraged to present, in addition to the opinion on the publication, suggestions for improvement regarding the content and form of the text.

The review process of the manuscript submitted to the Engenharia Agrícola consists on two steps. The first is a preliminary evaluation by the Editor-in-chief and Adjunt Editor, who examine: adequacy to the aims and scope of the Journal, technical grammatical and formal norms, relevance, content, textual coherence, theoretical and methodological consistency. The second consists of peer-review process, carried out by three ad hoc consultants.

The Editorial Board of the Journal has the rule to submit each manuscript received to the Field Area Editors, who in turn forward it for review by three

Scientific Reviewers, with the main objectives:

a) check whether the subject is appropriate for the Journal;

b) verify whether the information is sufficiently new to justify its publication, and

c) check whether it is presented in a convenient way, especially with regard to clarity, accuracy and conciseness of language.

The reviewer considers, primarily, the scientific quality of the text, focusing on the following aspects:

  • Topicality of the topic
  • Originality of the work
  • Relevance and theoretical consistency of the text for the development of the area of knowledge
  • Quality of the theoretical framework used
  • Quality of writing and organization of the text
  • Contribution of the work to the knowledge of the area in which the manuscript is inserted
  • Methodology used: suitability and quality
  • Quality of data analysis and discussion (if applicable)
  • Conclusions: achievement, rationale and coherence.

The result of the review process will be sent to the first author of the manuscript, by e-mail.

 

In line with Open Science communication practices, the Journal now adopts in its editorial policy, the opening of the peer review process in agreement with the reviewer.

In addition, authors may choose one or more means of opening the peer review process offered by the Journal, as  well as authors may agree to interact directly with reviewers responsible for evaluating the manuscript, when offered the option.

This Journal follows the Gold Open Access model.

Please, see the Open Science Compliance Form.
