EXPERIMENTAL AGRICULTURE

实验农业以世界热带和亚热带地区为重点，出版关于为粮食或饲料或工业目的种植的田野、种植园和牧草作物以及包括牲畜和人在内的农业系统的原始研究结果。它报告了旨在解释作物如何在生物和物理方面对环境作出反应的实验工作，以及可能影响决策者和农民接受研究成果的社会和经济问题，包括机构和伙伴关系在产生影响方面的作用。该杂志还出版了关于农业和生态系统研究中新的定量和定性方法以及在农业生产需要迅速发展的国家中出现的当代问题的报告和批判性讨论。有一个定期的书评部分，偶尔也会被邀请对研究进行评论。

With a focus on the tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world, Experimental Agriculture publishes the results of original research on field, plantation and herbage crops grown for food or feed, or for industrial purposes, and on farming systems, including livestock and people. It reports experimental work designed to explain how crops respond to the environment in biological and physical terms, and on the social and economic issues that may influence the uptake of the results of research by policy makers and farmers, including the role of institutions and partnerships in delivering impact. The journal also publishes accounts and critical discussions of new quantitative and qualitative methods in agricultural and ecosystems research, and of contemporary issues arising in countries where agricultural production needs to develop rapidly. There is a regular book review section and occasional, often invited, reviews of research.
