Farming System

• ISSN: 2949-9119

Farming System provides a platform to discuss farming system design, integrated crop and livestock production, farming management, and economic and sustainable development. The journal publishes original scientific papers, reviews, short communications, perspectives, and comments.The scope of Farming System includes:Farming System Design and Innovation: development and application of tools and methods for farming system design and management; decision-making and resource allocation in farming system; sustainability assessment and design of farming system and decision support tools; crop distribution and resources sustainability; crop modeling at either farm-, landscape-, regional-, national- and global-scale; the application of remote sensing in monitoring production at farm to global scale; farming system optimization;Farming System Development and Assessment: regional agricultural green development assessment; food security assessment from the perspective of farming system; the synergism assessment of crop production, economic benefits, ecosystem services, environmental sustainability of farming system; farming systems life cycle assessment (LCA); water footprint, carbon footprint, nitrogen footprint and other environmental footprints of farming system; crop resilience and adaption to climatic change;Sustainable Farming Management: sustainable intensification of resources, lower environmental consequence, carbon sequestration and emission reduction. For instance, diversified cropping, the combination of farming and animal husbandry, organic farming, low-carbon farming, eco-farming, green farming, circular agriculture, conservation agriculture, regenerative agriculture, environment-friendly agriculture, and climate-smart agriculture;Crop, Soil, and Environment Interactions: the mechanism of crop, soil, and environment interactions; crop growth process under different environments; the soil processes and microbial mechanisms supporting high crop yield, high efficiency, and low environmental impact;Research Frontier and Interdisciplinary in Farming System: new ideas, hypotheses, theories, and technologies that are adopted or fulfilled to solve the problems in farming system research and practice, such as new materials (nano-, chemical-, etc.), smart agriculture.

Global Food Security

• ISSN: 2211-9124
• 5 Year impact factor: 10.3
• Impact factor: 9.8

Motivation for Global Food Security arose from concern about the difficulty for scientists and policy makers to keep up with the expanding volume of information published about the challenge of ensuring food systems are meeting human food safety and nutritional requirements whilst protecting the environment, securing livelihoods, mitigating against climate change, and reducing inequalities. The journal takes the food system to incorporate all levels of food production from the supply of agricultural inputs and agricultural production through to final consumption, and the wider technological, environmental, economic, political and social context within which this occurs.Global Food Security aims to publish papers that contribute to better understanding of economic, social, biophysical, technological, political, and institutional drivers of current and future food security at the local to global levels. It aims to stimulate debate that is rooted in robust scientific analysis, has strong interdisciplinary connections, and recognizes the trade-offs that often occur because of reconciling competing objectives and outcomes in promoting the needed transformation of food systems.While integration across academic disciplines is encouraged, papers on specific elements of Global Food Security will also be considered if they address important constraints and have broad geographical relevance. The goal is to publish concise and timely reviews and synthesis articles related to research on the following elements of food security and food systems:Food availability - ensuring there is enough high quality and socially appropriate foods at the local to global levels.Food access - ensuring economic and physical access to safe, nutritious, and socially appropriate food through reduced poverty, well-functioning markets and conducive food environments.Food quality – ensuring food is safe to eat and of a high nutritional quality; ability to utilize foods in a manner that is safe and nutritious and aligned with the socio-cultural roles of food.Stability, environmental sustainability, and climate change – ensuring agri-food systems are resilient and sustainable.Wider socio-economic context and impacts of food systems – agency within the food system and impacts of efforts to promote the transformation of food systems towards sustainable food security on poverty inequalities, socio-cultural contributions of food systems, etc.The types of articles the Journal publishes include:Strategic reviews of research from a wide range of disciplinary perspectives related to sustainable food security based on the best available science, in a clear and readable form that is accessible to a wide disciplinary and professional audience, thus bridging the gap between the biological, social, and environmental sciences.Original research that has relevance to sustainable food security at the local to global level and where the wider implications beyond the specific context of the study are made clear. Also, where advanced technical research and data analysis techniques are communicated clearly and understandably to a diverse disciplinary and professional audience.Reviews, opinion pieces and debates that synthesize, extend and critique research approaches, methodologies, and findings from the evolving body of original research on global food security and agri-food system transformation.Distinguishing features of Global Food Security include:Incudes multiple papers that address specific and timely issues of importance to sustainable food security and the related transformation of food systems.publishes authors who are recognized authorities in their field.a focus on sustainable food security and related processes of food system transformation from the local to global level.a focus on examining the implications of localised and context-specific research for sustainable food security more generally from the local to global level.sustained effort to make technically complex analysis understandable and relevant to a multidisciplinary audience.a focus on challenging current paradigms and seeking to provide out-of-the box thinking on the technical, economic, social, political issues around sustainable food security.Given this focus, Global Food Security is considered an invaluable source of information for researchers, teachers, students, professionals, policy makers and the international media.

Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior

• ISSN: 1499-4046
• 5 Year impact factor: 2.6
• Impact factor: 2.3

Official Publication of Society for Nutrition Education and BehaviorThe Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior (JNEB), the official peer-reviewed journal of the Society for Nutrition Education and Behavior, since 1969, serves as a global resource to advance nutrition education and behavior related research, practice, and policy. JNEB publishes original research, as well as papers focused on emerging issues, policies and practices broadly related to nutrition education and behavior. These topics include, but are not limited to, nutrition education interventions; theoretical interpretation of behavior; epidemiology of nutrition and health; food systems; food assistance programs; nutrition and behavior assessment; and public health nutrition. Strategies to implement nutrition education, such as policy, systems, and environmental approaches or technological advances are also considered. Skill development within interventions, such as food procurement and culinary expertise; physical activity partnered with nutrition education; and strategies to reduce food insecurity are valued.In addition to Research Articles and Briefs, JNEB accepts Intervention Methods, Questionnaire Development Methods, Perspectives, Reports, Meta-analysis and Systematic Reviews, and GEMS (Great Educational Materials that have an evaluative component). Reviews of Educational Materials are invited. JNEB encourages data sharing to enhance scientific integrity. The procedure for submitting possible topics for position papers of SNEB can be found at https://www.jneb.org/content/policy_position_papers, and calls for papers related to specific themed issues are also available at https://www.jneb.org/.
