Call for papers/Topics

Full Articles/ Reviews/ Shorts Papers/ Abstracts are welcomed in the following research fields:

1. Ecological Agriculture (The Production Pillar)

This topic focuses on farming methods that work with nature rather than against it, emphasizing biodiversity and ecosystem services.

Agroecological Practices
- Crop Rotation and Polyculture (Intercropping).
- Cover Cropping and Green Manures.
- Biological Pest Control and Integrated Pest Management (IPM).

Soil Health & Regeneration
- Carbon Sequestration (Carbon Farming).
- Composting and Organic Fertilizer Management.
- Minimum Tillage and Erosion Control.

Water Stewardship
- Rainwater Harvesting and Integrated Water Management.
- Agroforestry and Riparian Buffers (protecting water quality).

Climate Resilience
- Drought-Resistant Traditional Crop Varieties.
- Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) Innovations.
- Biodiversity as a buffer against extreme weather events.

2. Food Security (The Access & Stability Pillar)

Food security is defined by the four dimensions below, ensuring everyone has reliable access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food.

Availability
- Sustainable Yield Optimization in Marginal Lands.
- Urban and Peri-urban Agriculture (reducing distance to food).
- Smallholder Productivity and Infrastructure.

Access
- Socio-economic Drivers (Income, Food Prices, and Equity).
- Land Tenure and Agrarian Reform (Rights of smallholders).
- Circular Food Economies and Reducing Post-Harvest Loss.

Utilization
- Dietary Diversity (Moving beyond staple monocultures).
- Biofortification (Increasing micronutrients like Iron and Zinc in crops).
- Food Safety and Hygiene Standards in Supply Chains.

Stability
- Building Resilience against Geopolitical and Economic Shocks.
- Preserving Genetic Diversity (Seed Banks and Heirloom Varieties).

3. Public Health (The Outcome Pillar)

This lens examines the direct and indirect impacts of agricultural systems on the human body and community well-being.

Nutrition-Sensitive Agriculture
- Prevention of Stunting, Anemia, and Wasting.
- Combating "Hidden Hunger" (Micronutrient Deficiencies).
- Impact of Fresh vs. Ultra-processed Foods on Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs).

Environmental Toxicology
- Impact of Synthetic Pesticide Residues on Human Biology.
- Nitrate Contamination in Drinking Water from Fertilizer Runoff.
- Endocrine Disruptors and Respiratory Health of Farmworkers.

Epidemiology and Zoonotics
- The "One Health" Approach: Interconnectedness of animal, human, and environmental health.
- Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in Livestock Production.
- Biodiversity as a buffer against Zoonotic Disease Spillover.

Mental and Community Wellbeing
- Labor Conditions and Fair Living Wages for Rural Workers.
- Social Sustainability: Gender Equality and Youth Renewal in Farming.

4. Governance & Policy (The Integration Pillar)

The glue that connects these sectors through legal and economic frameworks.

Integrated Food Policies
- "Farm to Fork" Strategies and Circular Food Systems.
- Human Rights-Based Frameworks (The Right to Food).

Market & Economic Instruments
- Payment for Ecosystem Services (PES).
- True Cost Accounting (pricing the environmental/health impact of food).
- Certification Schemes (Organic, Fair Trade, Regenerative).
