Aims and Scope
Precision Agriculture promotes the most innovative results coming from the research in the field of precision agriculture. It provides an effective forum for disseminating original and fundamental research and experience in the rapidly advancing area of precision farming.

There are many topics in the field of precision agriculture; therefore, the topics that are addressed include, but are not limited to:

Natural Resources Variability: Soil and landscape variability, digital elevation models, soil mapping, geostatistics, geographic information systems, microclimate, weather forecasting, remote sensing, management units, scale, etc.

Managing Variability: Sampling techniques, site-specific nutrient and crop protection chemical recommendation, crop quality, tillage, seed density, seed variety, yield mapping, remote sensing, record keeping systems, data interpretation and use, crops (corn, wheat, sugar beets, potatoes, peanut, cotton, vegetables, etc.), management scale, etc.

Engineering Technology: Computers, positioning systems, DGPS, machinery, tillage, planting, nutrient and crop protection implements, manure, irrigation, fertigation, yield monitor and mapping, soil physical and chemical characteristic sensors, weed/pest mapping, etc.

Profitability: MEY, net returns, BMPs, optimum recommendations, crop quality, technology cost, sustainability, social impacts, marketing, cooperatives, farm scale, crop type, etc.

Environment: Nutrient, crop protection chemicals, sediments, leaching, runoff, practices, field, watershed, on/off farm, artificial drainage, ground water, surface water, etc.

Technology Transfer: Skill needs, education, training, outreach, methods, surveys, agri-business, producers, distance education, Internet, simulations models, decision support systems, expert systems, on-farm experimentation, partnerships, quality of rural life, etc.

Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
The article was submitted in July 2020 and received major revisions in October. After the revisions, it was under consideration for two months, and then under review for over a month. There were minor revisions in the second round of review. After resubmission, the reviewer had no major issues. The third round of review was probably requested by the editor-in-chief, followed by a fourth round of review, but they were all minor revisions. Finally, it was accepted in April 2021. The process took about 9-10 months, luckily I wasn't in a hurry to graduate. However, the journal has a low acceptance rate each year, and it feels like they have strict standards. I hope PA (possibly referring to the journal name or field) continues to improve.

I have submitted two articles. The first one was submitted in October 2018. I received minor revisions in April 2019 and it was accepted in May. The second one was submitted in October 2019. I received major revisions in March 2020 and it was accepted in May 2020 after the revisions. The main focus of my research is agricultural remote sensing, and the acceptance rate is relatively high for articles that involve 3S technology. The journal has a low annual publication quantity, but its impact factor has been rapidly increasing in recent years. I hope the journal continues to improve.
