Aims: The New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science plays an important role in disseminating information to researchers in universities, research institutes, and other centres, on all aspects of the production, protection, handling, and processing of crop and horticultural products of relevance to the Australasian region.
Scope of submissions: The New Zealand Journal of Crop and Horticultural Science publishes original research papers, review papers, short communications, letters, and forum articles. We welcome submissions on biotechnology, entomology, plant nutrition, breeding, pathology, indoor and urban horticulture, postharvest physiology, soil science, viticulture, biosecurity, new crop and horticultural products, and descriptions of new cultivar releases. The journal welcomes work on tree and field crops, and particularly encourages contributions on kiwifruit, apples and wine grapes.
Prospective contributors should consult recent issues of the journal and see whether a planned submission is appropriate.
