| 3 | **Verified:** 2026-07 · These are the **Q1/Q2 agriculture journals whose publisher |
| 4 | format is not shared with any other skill in this suite** (see |
| 5 | `journals/_coverage_agriculture.md`). They come from societies, academies, and |
| 6 | university presses, so requirements vary — **always confirm at the journal's own |
| 7 | author guide** (linked below). Agriculture journals from Elsevier, Wiley, Springer, |
| 8 | Taylor & Francis, MDPI, Cambridge, Oxford, Emerald, Frontiers, BMC, KeAi, ACS, and |
| 9 | Annual Reviews use the existing publisher-tier skills instead — no duplicates. |

| 27 | *Confirm at the journal; these are the common defaults. The full Q1/Q2 list routed |
| 28 | here is in [`_coverage_agriculture.md`](../_coverage_agriculture.md). |
| 29 | |
| 30 | ## Default guidance (apply unless the journal specifies otherwise) |
| 31 | - Standard IMRaD; unstructured abstract ≤250 words; 4–6 keywords. |
| 32 | - **Field/agronomic trials:** state site (coordinates), season(s)/years, soil type and |
| 33 | classification, cultivar, plot size, experimental design (RCBD/split-plot) and |
| 34 | replication, agronomic management, and the statistical model — reproducibility is |
| 35 | the most common reviewer complaint. |
| 36 | - **Animal studies:** ethics/animal-care approval and the **ARRIVE** guideline; housing, |
| 37 | diet composition, and the experimental unit (pen vs animal). |
| 38 | - Declarations: competing interests, funding, author contributions, data availability. |
| 39 | - SI units; figures ≥300 dpi (line art higher); editable tables; all display items |
| 40 | cited in order. |
| 41 | - **Reference style:** use the per-journal style above; if unknown, default to |
| 42 | **APA 7.0** and flag for confirmation. |
| 43 | |
| 44 | ## Submission checklist |
| 45 | - [ ] Journal's reference style (see table) or APA 7.0 default · [ ] Abstract ≤250 words · [ ] 4–6 keywords |
| 46 | - [ ] Site/season/soil/cultivar/design/replication reported (field work) |
| 47 | - [ ] Ethics approval + ARRIVE (animal work) · [ ] Experimental unit stated |
| 48 | - [ ] Competing interests + funding + contributions + data availability |
| 49 | - [ ] Figures ≥300 dpi · [ ] Confirm exact limits at the journal source URL · [ ] Cover letter |
