Agricultural and Food Economics (AFE) is an international peer-reviewed and open access journal published on behalf of the Italian Society of Agricultural Economics. AFE welcomes research articles from economists, scholars and researchers from all over the world to publish problem-oriented and high-quality articles. AFE publishes only original articles from a wide variety of economic perspectives that address current and relevant issues related to the agricultural and food system. AFE publishes articles focused on applied analysis, the discussion of innovative results, and relevant policy and managerial implications. AFE seeks clearly written articles from experts in the field, to promote insightful understanding of the current trends in the agri-food system. Topics of specific interest to AFE include agricultural and food market analysis, agri-food firm management and marketing, organization of the agri-food chains, consumer behavior, food quality and safety issues, economics of nutrition and food security, food and health economics, agri-food policy and trade, sustainable rural development, natural and marine resource economics and land economics.

Journal of Biosystems Engineering offers to publish original research articles, review articles and technical note, quarterly and integrates general engineering with applied agricultural, biological, environmental, food, and livestock systems to solve problems in complex living systems. The journal aims to selectively publish highly notable original articles to advance and disseminate scientific and technical knowledge in the field of biosystems engineering. JBE covers a wide range of topics related to the following categories: i) off-road machinery system engineering (including agricultural farm power and machinery, agricultural safety and health, agricultural and biosystems management, soil and terra-mechanics, and forest machinery), ii) agri-environmental system engineering and energy (including structure and facilities for living systems, indoor environmental control, livestock machinery, horticultural machinery, plant factory, and biomass/renewable energy), iii) agricultural process and food engineering (including postharvest technology, food quality and safety, and food processing and packaging), iv)  biological engineering (including biomechanics, biosensors, bioMEMS/NEMS, and tissue engineering), v) information technology and electronics (including information and precision agriculture, instrumentation and controls, and robotics), and vi) emerging technology related to smart farming, micro- and nano-agriculture, artificial intelligence, analysis and applications of big data in the field of biosystems engineering.
