The authors who submit an article for possible publication in Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Agrícolas shall send the documents —in full and in their final versions— indicated in requirements for manuscript submission. Once the editorial team verifies that the submission meets all the submission requirements, the text will be sent to editorial review, which contemplates the following stages:
- Accredit plagiarism detection under a tool approved by the Editorial Committee, only after this will it be possible to go on to the next stages of academic review.
- It will be verified that the submitted text correlates with the journal’s focus and scope. Works which do not explicitly regard the regional dimension as a relevant component will not be considered.
- It will be checked that the text meets each and every format indication stated in requirement for manuscript submission and delivery of originals, as well as those in guidelines for authors.
- It will be revised that the reported bibliography is relevant and updated and that it is duly presented standardized according to the journal’s guidelines and APA.
- In accordance with the editorial policy guidelines, approved by the editorial committee, priority will be given to texts whose cited literature is delivered using reference management software and with active hyperlinks to the respective DOIs, where appropriate.
Once the submitted article accredits editorial review, the corresponding author will be formally notified about the beginning of the process of academic review over the OJS platform.
