• General Agricultural and Biological Sciences

  Research addressing agricultural productivity, food technology, biotechnology, bio-based materials, and environmental sustainability, with emphasis on innovative techniques that enhance the bio-circular-green economy.

• General Computer Science

  Contributions in artificial intelligence, data science, software engineering, information systems, and emerging technologies that advance computational methods and digital transformation in various scientific and industrial domains.

• General Mathematics

  Theoretical and applied mathematics, modeling, simulation, statistics, and computational methods that provide analytical solutions and quantitative insights supporting scientific and engineering research.

Types of Articles

JARST welcomes research articles and review articles.

• Research articles – A research article presents original research findings that fall clearly within the scope of the journal. It should include well-defined research hypotheses, detailed methodology, results, and a clear conclusion. The article must demonstrate logical coherence, clarity of presentation, and a meaningful contribution to the relevant field of study.

• Review articles – A review article offers critical and constructive analysis of a specific topic within the field of science, drawing upon significant findings from existing literature. The article should identify prevailing trends, evaluate existing methodologies, and highlight gaps in current knowledge. Its purpose is to provide a comprehensive overview that contributes to a deeper understanding and suggests directions for future research.

All accepted manuscripts are published online immediately upon acceptance and are freely accessible worldwide without any subscription or access barriers, ensuring the widest possible dissemination of scientific knowledge.

JARST is committed to providing unrestricted access to all published articles, thereby facilitating the global dissemination and effective utilization of scholarly research. We provide open access to our content, thereby allowing readers to access and download articles online free of charge.

Peer Review Process

All manuscripts submitted to JARST are subject to a double-blind peer-review process, in which both the authors and reviewers remain anonymous. The Editor-in-Chief first evaluates whether the manuscript's subject matter and content align with the journal’s aims and scope. Submissions are also screened for plagiarism and assessed for their theoretical and practical contributions. Manuscripts may be returned to the authors for revision if initial criteria are not met, or rejected outright. Each manuscript is reviewed by at least three experts in the relevant field. The final decision on publication rests with the Editor-in-Chief, based on the evaluations provided by the reviewers. Further information on the peer-review process can be found here.
