IJARIT aims to change the world of agricultural research by publishing the most exciting research in the field of agricultural sciences to ensure high-quality peer-reviewing, equal opportunity to publish and read, drive integration across disciplines, provide a spectrum of services for researchers and research-related organizations, and systematically translate advanced research knowledge to increase public understanding. Secondly, to provide the most rapid turnaround time possible for reviewing and publishing, and to disseminate the article freely for teaching and reference purposes. The IJARIT vision is a comprehensive, full-service system for all entities concerned with agricultural research. IJARIT operates as an open access journal and, therefore, adopts the standard open access business model where authors pay the Article Publishing Fees (APF) to allow anyone to read their article for free (author-pay/reader-free). IJARIT aims to be a leading outlet for agriculturists, researchers, scientists, scholars, and professionals for their scholastic works. An international board of editors is determined to reduce editorial turnaround time and encourage submissions of the highest quality. 

Publication Frequency

The journal is published biannually, twice a year (June and December).

Publication Ethics 

Int. J. Agril. Res. Innov. Tech. (IJARIT) follows COPE - Committee on Publication Ethics. Authors who are concerned about the editorial process may refer to COPE. We recommend that authors, reviewers, and editors adapt and adopt these guidelines to best fit the needs of their own particular publishing environment.

Open Access Policy

All research articles published in the Int. J. Agril. Res. Innov. Tech. (IJARIT) journal are fully open access: immediately freely available to read, download, and share without any form of restriction. The journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge. 

Peer Review Policy

The IJARIT Open Access journal maintains the highest standards of peer review while increasing the efficiency of the process. All research articles published in IJARIT undergo full peer review, the key characteristics of which are listed below:

  • At least two suitably qualified experts review all research and review articles.
  • On the basis of the reviews' comments, the journals' editor-in-chief makes all publication decisions.
  • Members of the international Editorial Board lend insight, advice, and guidance to the Editor-in-Chief generally and to assist in decision-making on specific submissions.
  • The executive editor provides the administrative support to maintain the integrity of peer review while delivering rapid turnaround and maximum efficiency to authors, reviewers, and editors.

Article Withdrawal Policy

Manuscripts may be withdrawn within 7 days of submission. Once a manuscript is published, it cannot be taken back. Articles will only be taken down, retracted, or removed if there are any legal disputes or copyright violations that go against professional ethics, like multiple submissions, false claims of authorship, plagiarism, fraudulent use of data, or similar things.

Publication Fee 

IJARIT Research Foundation is a self-supporting organization and does not receive funding from any institution or government. Authors are required to pay a fair manuscript handling fee for the processing of their articles. However, there are no submission charges. Authors are required to make payment only after their manuscripts have been accepted for publication. After acceptance of the paper, authors will have to pay BDT 4000/= (for Bangladeshi) or USD 100$ (other than Bangladeshi) as article processing charges (APC) for editing, online publishing, archiving, and evaluation of the article through the online banking system or Western Union Money Transfer.

Waiver Policy

The IJARIT journal is fully open access and requires article processing charges (APCs) to be paid following acceptance. To help support researchers who are unable to meet some or all of the costs associated with publishing open access, the IJARIT Research Foundation operates a transparent waiver policy, ensuring researchers from low-income countries can easily understand what automatic support for article processing charges is available to them. However, qualified authors from low-income countries, as described at https://datahelpdesk.worldbank.org may be considered for waivers. Authors who believe they are eligible for a waiver should contact the editorial office at editor@ijarit.online

Plagiarism Policy

The editorial office of the International Journal of Agricultural Research, Innovation and Technology (IJARIT) performs a preliminary plagiarism check through plagiarism checker software on each manuscript when it is submitted. The author should aim at zero plagiarism when it is an original paper. However, up to 15% similarity is allowed in many indexed journals. Therefore, IJARIT is allowed to keep the plagiarism level below 15%.

Copyright Policy

The International Journal of Agricultural Research, Innovation and Technology publishes all of its articles under open access, which entails unrestricted online access for everyone. In addition, the authors retain unrestricted copyright and all publishing rights to their article(s) and grant any third party the right to use, reproduce, and disseminate the article(s). IJARIT publishes Open Access articles under the Creative Commons Attribution License (CC By 4.0). This license permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.

Self-Archiving Policy

The self-archiving policy of IJARIT aims to support open access to scientific research and information sharing that ensures that there are no paywalls or other access restrictions on the study and enables researchers to disseminate their findings more widely. IJARIT permitted to deposit all versions of the published articles in an institutional or subject repository. This policy gives authors the freedom to store their own academic works in their particular institutional repositories or on non-profit subject-based preprint servers. Authors are granted the privilege of self-archiving their work for non-commercial purposes.
