Advancing Animal and AgriFood Sciences for a Sustainable Future
Animal & AgriFood Research (AAFR) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to advancing scientific knowledge across Veterinary Science, Animal Science, Fisheries Science, Agricultural Science and Food Technology.
The journal publishes high-quality original research articles, review articles, veterinary case reports, short communications, field studies, survey-based research and other scholarly contributions addressing animal health and production, fisheries and aquaculture, agriculture, food science and technology and the wider animal and agri-food sector.
AAFR welcomes fundamental, applied, clinical, field-based and interdisciplinary research including studies on animal health and welfare, livestock and poultry production, fisheries, aquaculture, agricultural production, food processing, food safety, value addition, agribusiness, livestock and agricultural economics, marketing, consumer behaviour, extension, rural development and adoption of technologies.
The journal provides an international platform for researchers, veterinarians, academicians, professionals, policymakers and industry experts to exchange scientific knowledge and develop practical solutions contributing to sustainable production, food and nutritional security, One Health, resource efficiency and resilient animal and agri-food systems.
A Journal with Purpose
AAFR recognises that meaningful scientific research extends beyond laboratory and experimental studies. Clinical observations, field experiences, epidemiological investigations, surveys, socio-economic analyses and market-oriented research can also provide valuable evidence for improving animal health, agricultural production and food systems. The Journal welcomes research that:
- Addresses contemporary challenges in veterinary, animal, fisheries, agricultural and food sciences.
- Reports clinically significant and scientifically valuable veterinary cases and field observations.
- Uses surveys, questionnaires, epidemiological studies and data analysis to understand emerging trends and practical challenges.
- Connects scientific findings with practical applications, technologies and field-level interventions.
- Examines livestock, fisheries and agricultural economics, marketing, value chains, entrepreneurship and consumer behaviour.
- Promotes interdisciplinary research, innovation and collaboration across animal and agri-food sciences.
- Supports sustainable production, responsible resource utilisation and climate-resilient food systems.
- Advances animal health and welfare, food quality, food safety, value addition and nutritional security.
- Contributes to One Health and the well-being of animals, people and the environment.
