Peer Review and Publication Process

All manuscripts submitted to the Journal of Adaptive Agriculture and Biotechnology Research (JAABR) are first reviewed by the Editor-in Chief.  Submissions are then reviewed by two or more experts in specialties or sub specialties relevant to the manuscripts.

The Journal of Adaptive Agriculture and Biotechnology Research (JAABR) will usually notify authors of manuscript acceptance, revision requests, or rejection within four weeks of acknowledgment of receipt of manuscripts.  Authors are encouraged to contact the JAARB if they have not received a status update within that period.

As a means of maintaining editorial and other quality standards, all accepted manuscripts are subject to editing and abridgment.  Such editing takes place after manuscripts have undergone peer review and author revision.  During the editing process, the JAABR editors will revise all accepted manuscripts for clarity, organization, grammar, conformity to house style and format, and appropriate use of terminology, nomenclature and spellings.

Corresponding authors will receive galley proofs of edited manuscripts for review and comment before publication. Corresponding authors are responsible for action on peer reviewers’ comments and concerns.  They are also responsible for verifying all statements in their articles, including the accuracy of changes made by the Editors. Failure to respond fully to peer reviewers’ comments and concerns as well as staff Editors’ queries or to verify statements may result in publication delay.
