description	Author-guideline skill for Q1/Q2 agriculture journals from society, academy, and regional publishers not covered by a dedicated publisher skill: Soil (Copernicus), Plant Soil and Environment / Czech Journal of Animal Science (Czech Academy of Agricultural Sciences), CABI titles, Crop and Pasture Science (CSIRO), Animal Bioscience (AAAP), Journal of Animal Science and Technology (KSAST), Australian Journal of Grape and Wine Research (IVES), Am. J. Enology and Viticulture, Seed Science and Technology (ISTA), Scientia Agricola (USP/ESALQ), and similar. Use to format or check a manuscript for one of these agriculture journals — with the journal's source URL and default guidance. Triggers: submit to Soil Copernicus, Crop and Pasture Science, Animal Bioscience, Scientia Agricola, Czech Journal of Animal Science guidelines. Also fires when the user wants to publish on/in one of these journals, format a manuscript for it, or match its reference/citation style.

Society & Regional Agriculture Journals — Author Guideline Skill

Verified: 2026-07 · These are the Q1/Q2 agriculture journals whose publisher format is not shared with any other skill in this suite (see journals/_coverage_agriculture.md). They come from societies, academies, and university presses, so requirements vary — always confirm at the journal's own author guide (linked below). Agriculture journals from Elsevier, Wiley, Springer, Taylor & Francis, MDPI, Cambridge, Oxford, Emerald, Frontiers, BMC, KeAi, ACS, and Annual Reviews use the existing publisher-tier skills instead — no duplicates.

*Confirm at the journal; these are the common defaults. The full Q1/Q2 list routed here is in _coverage_agriculture.md.

Default guidance (apply unless the journal specifies otherwise)

• Standard IMRaD; unstructured abstract ≤250 words; 4–6 keywords.
• Field/agronomic trials: state site (coordinates), season(s)/years, soil type and classification, cultivar, plot size, experimental design (RCBD/split-plot) and replication, agronomic management, and the statistical model — reproducibility is the most common reviewer complaint.
• Animal studies: ethics/animal-care approval and the ARRIVE guideline; housing, diet composition, and the experimental unit (pen vs animal).
• Declarations: competing interests, funding, author contributions, data availability.
• SI units; figures ≥300 dpi (line art higher); editable tables; all display items cited in order.
• Reference style: use the per-journal style above; if unknown, default to APA 7.0 and flag for confirmation.
