Scope

Aims and Scope: The Aims and Scope of Applied Agriculture Sciences highlight its mission to advance the scientific understanding of agricultural and food production systems, with a particular focus on the interplay between these two essential sectors. The journal seeks to address not only current agricultural practices but also future challenges, including climate change, resource management, food safety, and sustainability.

Key subject areas include, but are not limited to:

• Agronomy and crop science
• Soil science and environmental sustainability
• Plant breeding and biotechnology
• Animal sciences and livestock management
• Food science and technology
• Sustainable agriculture practices
• Agricultural engineering and innovations
• Climate change impacts on agriculture
• Agricultural economics and policy
