Citations

In-Text Citation: Use the last name of the first author followed by the publication year, e.g., Keonouchanh (2002), Hanna and Riley (2014), and Pantelic et al. (2011). In the case of multiple authors, arrange them chronologically, and if the years are the same, alphabetically. Separate multiple references with a semicolon, e.g., (Schukken et al., 1994; Tummaruk et al., 2001). For a single author or group within the same year, use alphabetical labels and separate with semicolons, e.g., (Serenius and Stalder, 2004; 2007). If the same author or group has multiple works in the same year, use alphabetical labels and separate with semicolons, e.g., (Department of Livestock Development, 2014a; 2014b).

Reference List: Arrange the references alphabetically by the last name of the first author, followed by the author's initials and the publication year. Use the APA journal name abbreviation.

Research Article

Original research manuscripts submitted should present scientifically robust experiments and contribute significant new insights to the field. The manuscript must incorporate the latest and most pertinent references pertinent to the subject matter. The structure of the manuscript should encompass an Abstract, Keywords, Introduction, Materials and Methods, Results, Discussion, and an optional Conclusions section. Authors are advised to aim for a comprehensive treatment of the topic, with a recommended minimum word length of 6000 words. For detailed submission guidelines and specific formatting templates, authors should consult the journal's website.

Review Article

Review articles are comprehensive syntheses of existing research in a specific field, offering a thorough analysis of current literature. They play a crucial role in highlighting existing gaps or unresolved issues in the field. These articles should be both critical and constructive, evaluating the strengths and weaknesses of previous studies, and suggesting areas for future research. Importantly, they should not introduce any new, unpublished data.

The typical structure of a review article includes:

Abstract: A brief summary of the article’s content, including its purpose and key insights.

Keywords: Selected terms that reflect the core themes of the article, aiding in searchability and indexing.

Introduction: Sets the stage for the review, establishing the context, significance, and objectives of the analysis.

Relevant Sections: These sections form the body of the review and involve a thematic or chronological organization of the literature. They provide an in-depth examination of the current state of research on the topic.

Discussion: This section interprets the findings presented, discussing their implications, and evaluating the collective strengths and limitations of the existing research.

Conclusions and Future Directions: Summarizes the main findings, underscoring the contributions of the review to the field, and proposes potential avenues for future research.

A recommended minimum word count for such articles is 6,000 words, ensuring a comprehensive coverage of the topic. Review articles are critical resources for scholars and practitioners, offering valuable insights into the evolution of a field and guiding future research directions. They are typically peer-reviewed, ensuring their scholarly rigor and relevance.

Systematic Review Article

Systematic review articles delve deeply into existing research on a designated topic, using specific and methodical criteria and processes to collect, organize, assess, and synthesize all relevant studies. Structurally akin to conventional reviews but notably more detailed, these articles are expected to be at least 6,000 words in length and importantly, must contain a Methods section.

Compliance with the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines, available at the PRISMA website (http://prisma-statement.org/PRISMAStatement/Checklist), is essential. Authors need to include a PRISMA flow chart, which can be placed either in the main article or the supplementary materials, with templates available for download on the PRISMA website.

Further, it's recommended that authors pre-register their comprehensive research plans before beginning data collection, using a public registry such as PROSPERO (https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/). The review's Methods section should contain a declaration of adherence to PRISMA standards and, if applicable, information about the registration of the research protocol.

Academic Article

An academic article is a meticulously crafted written work that serves as a conduit for the dissemination of original research, scholarly insights, or critical analyses within a specific academic discipline. These articles adhere to a structured format encompassing sections like an abstract, introduction, methodology, results, discussion, and conclusion, which may vary depending on the field. Academic articles are characterized by formal and technical language, extensive citations and references to previous work, and a primary audience consisting of fellow scholars, researchers, and students in the field. Their fundamental purpose is to contribute to the advancement of knowledge, challenge existing theories, and stimulate academic di

Book Review

Book reviews serve as concise literary evaluations, focusing on the analysis of a book's content, style, and overall quality. These reviews typically commence with a complete citation of the book, including its full details. Structurally, a book review should begin with an introduction and then proceed to a thorough discussion of the book's key aspects, without dividing into sections or providing a conclusive summary. It is advisable to aim for a length of at least 500 words in order to cover the necessary critical points.
