Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The continuous optimization of cultivation measures has shown excellent improvements in crop products and significant enhancements in cropland quality. Studying the laws of rice growth, development, yield, and quality formation, as well as the physiological mechanisms behind them, achieving the synergistic development of high-yielding, high-quality, efficient rice and sustainable development in agriculture is a hot and challenging topic in rice cultivation research. Based on the above, we initiated a Special Issue in Agronomy on "Rice Cultivation and Physiology", which will focus on the following:

  1. The physiological basis of rice cultivation;
  2. Physiological mechanisms of high-yielding and efficient rice;
  3. Techniques for high-yielding and efficient regulation of fertilizer and water in rice cultivation;
  4. Cultivation measures for synergistic development of rice quality and soil quality.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Agronomy is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
