Plagiarism Policy

Authors must submit only original manuscripts that have not been published previously and are not under consideration for publication elsewhere. AGROSYS: Journal of Agronomy and Sustainable Crop Systems maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward plagiarism in any form.

The Editor-in-Chief and the Editorial Board take all necessary and reasonable actions to identify and prevent plagiarism and other forms of research misconduct. The editorial team utilizes Turnitin to check the similarity of all submitted manuscripts against previously published literature and online content.

The maximum permitted similarity index is 20%. Manuscripts exceeding this threshold will be returned to the authors for revision or rejected outright.

Under no circumstances will the Editor-in-Chief or the Editorial Board encourage, condone, or knowingly permit plagiarism or any other unethical publishing behavior. All detected cases of plagiarism will be handled in accordance with the journal’s publication ethics guidelines and COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) standards.
