Focus and Scope
The Journal of Agriculture, Food and Sustainable Development (JAFSD) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to advancing research in agriculture, food sciences, and sustainable development. The journal welcomes original research articles, reviews, short communications, perspectives, and commentaries from scholars in academic institutions, international research centers, and public and private research organizations.
JAFSD has a particular interest in interdisciplinary research that explores the connections between agriculture, food, economics, and sustainable development. Editors will prioritize studies that integrate agricultural and food sciences with economic, environmental, and policy perspectives to address global challenges related to food security, resource management, and sustainable growth. Special issues covering specific themes and conference proceedings are also considered for publication.
