Reviewer 1 Report
This paper reveals the effects of foliar application of urea on the productivity of pineapple crops. The study is well-established, written in a logical manner, the experiment is properly set up and described, the results are thoroughly discussed. I have only minor recommendations for possible improvement of the manuscript:
- For a manuscript submitted to Sustainability, it would be good to address the sustainability-related aspects of the topic. Consider addressing them when talking about the relevance of the topic in the Introduction, as well as when discussing the findings in the Discussion.
- The conclusion should be expanded to address the author's vision of the limitations of the study and potential areas of future research.
- Think about reducing the title, it is too wordy. Making them more catchy would potentially attract more readers
- The quality of English language and style should be improved
