The Journal of Agri‑Earth & Environmental Research provides a publishing platform for original, interdisciplinary research that bridges agricultural science, environmental systems, and earth science disciplines. The journal focuses on work that not only deepens understanding within each of these areas, but also connects them meaningfully in light of today’s global challenges. As landscapes shift due to population pressures, climate change, and resource constraints, the need for integrated research has never been more urgent.

Our aim is to support research that contributes to the sustainable management of natural resources, the advancement of agricultural productivity, and the protection of ecological systems. We encourage submissions that offer scientific insight into complex systems involving soil, water, climate, vegetation, biodiversity, and human interaction with the environment. The journal prioritizes research that is empirical, analytical, or methodological, but also recognizes the value of qualitative, policy-driven, and practice-based studies, especially those rooted in local knowledge and regional contexts.

Interdisciplinary Research Themes

The scope of the journal includes a wide array of research topics across intersecting domains. In agricultural sciences, we welcome studies on crop science, agronomy, horticulture, soil fertility, plant nutrition, and integrated pest management. The journal supports research in sustainable agriculture, organic farming, agroecology, precision agriculture, farm management, agricultural extension, and post-harvest technology.

We also welcome environmental studies related to ecosystems and biodiversity, land degradation and restoration, resource conservation, environmental pollution, and rural-urban ecological transitions. Papers may cover air, water, and soil quality; waste management; biogeochemical cycles; and the environmental impacts of farming and land use. Contributions related to environmental education, community resource management, and participatory rural appraisal are also encouraged.

In the earth sciences domain, the journal covers geosciences, geomorphology, hydrology, climatology, remote sensing, and GIS applications. Submissions may address land cover change, drought modeling, erosion risk, flood forecasting, watershed dynamics, or environmental hazards. Research that integrates field measurements, spatial analysis, or modeling techniques to explore terrain, water bodies, weather, or earth processes is especially relevant.

Applied Focus and Global Perspective

The journal favors research with direct or potential applications. Papers that offer insights for improving environmental quality, agricultural productivity, land restoration, or climate resilience are of particular interest. This includes technology-driven studies, such as those involving agricultural robotics, soil sensors, climate-smart agriculture, or mobile-based data tools for rural areas.

Authors may submit work that examines the interface of environment and agriculture with policy, governance, and economics. Topics such as food security, agricultural finance, land tenure, farmer livelihoods, resource equity, or indigenous land practices are all within the journal’s interest. We welcome cross-country comparative research, impact evaluations of programs, and case studies that demonstrate how scientific research is applied or adapted at the local level.

The journal is international in scope and encourages research from all world regions. We actively support submissions from countries and institutions that are underrepresented in global publishing. Localized studies are welcome, especially when they offer methodological innovation or highlight transferable lessons. The journal values inclusivity in research collaboration and encourages contributions from multi-institutional and cross-sectoral teams.

Types of Contributions and Thematic Breadth

The Journal of Agri‑Earth & Environmental Research accepts a range of manuscript types, including:

• Original research articles
• Review papers
• Case studies and field reports
• Methodological notes
• Policy-focused research
• Interdisciplinary syntheses
• Applied and technical briefs

Research may focus on one of the three core fields—agriculture, environment, or earth sciences—but submissions that intersect two or more are particularly encouraged. For example, studies on crop yield under varying climatic conditions, assessments of soil erosion under changing land use, or evaluations of agroforestry systems that enhance biodiversity all fit well within the journal’s aims.

In terms of methodology, both quantitative and qualitative approaches are welcome. These include field experiments, remote sensing analysis, spatial modeling, simulation studies, participatory mapping, and ethnographic inquiry. Papers may involve lab work, survey data, secondary datasets, or multi-year longitudinal designs. The journal values methodological transparency and encourages data-sharing where feasible.

The journal also seeks to build dialogue between researchers and practitioners. Submissions that involve farmers, land users, rural communities, or policy actors in the research design or implementation are encouraged. Such participatory and stakeholder-engaged research reflects the journal’s commitment to relevance, equity, and grounded impact.

The Journal of Agri‑Earth & Environmental Research continues to evolve as global environmental concerns intersect with agricultural policy, food systems, and natural resource governance. We welcome work that explores this evolving space, including studies on carbon farming, regenerative agriculture, ecological restoration, and climate adaptation strategies at multiple scales.
