Journal Indexing
Journal of Farming (JF) is built for visibility, citation integrity, and long term access. We use trusted scholarly infrastructure so your research can be discovered by the global agriculture community.
Indexing and discovery are independent processes. We focus on meeting technical and editorial standards that support inclusion and sustained reach.
CrossMark version control
Ensures readers access the most current version of an article with updates and corrections clearly indicated.
Crossref Similarity Check
Plagiarism screening during editorial review maintains originality and research integrity.
These safeguards protect trust in applied farming recommendations and help readers track corrections across platforms.
Google Scholar
The most widely used academic search engine for rapid discovery of JF articles.
WorldCat (OCLC)
Global library catalog supporting institutional discovery and long term visibility.
These discovery channels help researchers, extension specialists, and policymakers find farming research quickly after publication.
JF content is discovered through open metadata and structured crawling by major discovery services. Inclusion supports reach but does not imply endorsement.
Open metadata helps these services update records and surface articles in agriculture, agronomy, and food systems research.
Authors play a direct role in indexing success. Clear titles, precise keywords, and detailed abstracts help discovery systems match your article to relevant searches. For farming research, include crop names, regions, production systems, and key methods to improve precision.
- Use standardized crop and livestock terminology.
- Include geographic context when field trials are location specific.
- Highlight sustainability metrics, yield outcomes, or economic results.
- Ensure references include DOI links when available.
Submission and review
Editorial checks begin immediately and peer review evaluates scientific quality.
Acceptance and proofing
Final files are prepared and metadata is validated for accuracy.
Metadata deposited
DOIs, sitemaps, and structured metadata enable rapid discovery.
Global visibility
Articles appear across discovery channels and library systems.
Consistent metadata and clear author information reduce errors and speed inclusion across services.
If author names, affiliations, or article details change after publication, contact the editorial office immediately. Timely corrections help indexing services update records and protect author attribution.
JF can issue metadata updates and correction notices when required to maintain the integrity of the scholarly record.
- Indexing vs discovery: Indexing ensures citation integrity and identification, while discovery helps readers find articles. Both support impact.
- Speed: Crossref registration enables immediate citation resolution, while discovery platforms typically surface new articles shortly after publication.
- PubMed note: Only articles funded by agencies that require deposit are eligible for PubMed Central. Once deposited, they become discoverable through PubMed.
We publish only verifiable information about indexing and discovery. For questions about a specific service, contact the editorial office.
