Peer Review Process
Agro Bali : Agricultural Journal reviewing policies:
Reviewing Process of Manuscripts
Each manuscript submitted to this journal will be reviewed by at least two peer reviewers under a double-blind review system. In this process, the identities of the authors and reviewers will be kept confidential, ensuring that neither party is aware of the other's identity. This approach aims to maintain objectivity and integrity in the manuscript evaluation process.
Decisions from reviewers are a top priority for editors to make decisions. The time reviewers are required to complete a round review process is three weeks. Generally, prospective reviewers will be selected based on their reputation and expertise suitability. The decision for publication, amendment, or rejection is based on their reports/recommendations. After being reviewed, there will be four kinds of editor decisions based on reviewers’ recommendations:
> Accept Submission: The submission will be accepted without revisions.
> Revisions Required: The submission will be accepted after minor changes have been made.
> Resubmit for Review: The submission needs to be re-worked, but with significant changes, may be accepted. It will require a second round of review, however.
> Decline Submission: The submission will not be published in the journal.
However, if Editor(s) or Reviewers consider a manuscript unsuitable for publication in this journal, a statement explaining the basis for the decision will be sent to the authors after the submission date after the pre-evaluation step.
Revision of Manuscripts
Manuscripts sent back to the authors after revision should be returned to the Editorial Office without delay according to the given deadline date.
The revised manuscript document files should be uploaded to the Online Submission Interface (https://ejournal.unipas.ac.id/index.php/Agro/index) in the "Upload Author Version" from the Review task window in the Author window.
The revised document files should include at least:
- One (1) file of "Revised Manuscript file" according to The Template-based format (MS Word file) (indicated blue-color texts in the highlighted revised sentences), and Notes/Response to Reviewers Comments below reviewer comment on the manuscript file.
