separated by a hyphen as shown below: Serrano-Velázquez. It applies to
co-authors as well. Write at the bottom of the page, using asterisks, the

The document presented will be evaluated within
the modality of research article, technical note, literature reviews on a
specific topic, book reviews, updates or analysis and comments on
specific agricultural activities. However, the final decision on the
modality for publication of the manuscript will be based on the criteria
of the reviewers and recommendations of the members of the Editorial
Board and the International Advisory Editorial Board.
ORCID Code. It serves
to identify the author with a unique code that will differentiate him or
her from any other person who publishes. This code is required to
affiliate both the researcher and the publications he or she makes. The
author must register the full name, email and password at the following
link: http://orcid.org/
The link indicated above will automatically
generate the ORCID code of the person who publishes. If a publication
involves several authors, the ORCID must appear for each of the
participants in the publication and not only for the person indicated as
a contact for correspondence. The code must appear at the bottom of the
page for each of the people participating in the publication.
Structured summary. The summary must be one paragraph in length detailing the objective
of the work, the procedure, the main results and the conclusions should
be indicated, in a maximum of 300 words maximum. The terms
"Introduction, Objective, Materials and methods, Results and
Conclusions" should be highlighted in bold to differentiate those
contents within the summary. Include data in expressions like “higher or
lower than, greater of less than”.
Abstract. It must be
accurate to the summary in English and must include the title in Spanish.
Keywords. Include up
to 5-7 keywords which allow the user to easily locate on a digital
platform the document.
Introduction. It should include the justification of the
research, the most relevant antecedents up to that moment on the subject
and the concrete objective of the article.
Materials and methods. It refers
to all materials or methods required for the development of the research
with a detailed description in order to achieve specific results. If the
author requires a specialized program, the author must present a
description and convenience of its use to achieve the results.
Results and discussion (may be presented together or separately). Its
content is based on the results obtained from the objective stated in the
research. Regardless of their complexity, they need to be exposed in a
clear and simple manner. The results can be numbers, categories or
groupings of the objects or subjects of study. The presentation of the
results should be characterized by the accuracy and legitimacy of the
facts and figures recorded, so that results are not based only on
qualifications such as: much, little, more, less, or enough, because it
could lead to an inaccurate interpretation which weakens the
investigation.
