the Use of Artificial Intelligence

Agrotechniques in Industrial Crops (Agrotech Ind Crops) is dedicated to maintaining the highest levels of scientific integrity and originality. Therefore, all submitted manuscripts must be the authentic result of the authors' own research, analysis, and writing. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools—including, but not limited to, text generation, data analysis, or literature review—is strongly discouraged. Manuscripts should represent the authors’ original intellectual work, and any dependence on AI for content creation will be viewed as a violation of ethical authorship standards.

If authors have used AI tools for specific, limited tasks (such as language editing, data processing, or generating images), they must clearly state the type and extent of AI involvement in a designated section of the manuscript (such as "Methods" or "Acknowledgments"). Failure to properly disclose the use of AI may lead to immediate rejection or retraction of the manuscript. The editorial team, including editors and reviewers, will assess the suitability of AI usage on an individual basis and reserves the right to reject any submission where AI-generated content undermines scientific quality or originality.

We firmly believe that the progress of science relies on human creativity, critical thinking, and scholarly dedication. While AI can be used as a supplementary tool, it must not replace the authors’ intellectual responsibility. By submitting to Agrotech Ind Crops, authors confirm their compliance with these guidelines and consent to scrutiny regarding the authenticity of their research.
