Editorial policy of the journal “Journal of Osh State University. Agriculture: Agronomy, Veterinary and Zootechnics” is based on the principles of objectivity and impartiality in the selection of articles for publication; high demanding to the quality of scientific research; mandatory review of articles; observance of collegiality in decision-making on the publication of articles; accessibility and efficiency in communication with authors; strict observance of copyright and related rights. The main criterion for selection of materials for publication is their novelty and relevance of ideas, scientific and factual reliability of the presented work.
“Journal of Osh State University. Agriculture: Agronomy, Veterinary and Zootechnics” covers modern research and innovations in the field of agriculture, animal husbandry and veterinary medicine, covering both fundamental scientific research and applied solutions aimed at increasing productivity, sustainable development and food security. The journal has three main headings: Agronomy, Veterinary Science and Zootechnics.
