The second reviewer has been reviewing for 6 weeks, but they are not providing any feedback. The editor is also not replacing them, and it has been almost 7 months in total. I really don't know when this will be dragged out to!

Now the speed of Soil Tillage research is too slow. It was submitted on July 25th, with the editor on July 27th, and still with the editor on August 8th. Whether it will be reviewed or not is dragging on.

Hello, may I ask if there is a "Decision in Process" process after your RRC? Does having this mean that the outcome is negative?

zhangj 2023-07-25

In general, it is usually the best option to resubmit.

sunny206 2023-07-24

Hello, do you have the process of "Decision in Process" after your external review? If "Decision in Process" is displayed after the external review, does it mean things aren't looking good?

Finally found the second reviewer, but it has been three weeks already and this reviewer still hasn't replied to the manuscript. I don't know if this reviewer doesn't intend to review it or if the time hasn't come yet! Who knows how long this journal usually gives reviewers to review? Hurry up, it has already been six months from start to finish!

My speed is very fast. 4.11 submission. 4.14 format modification. 5.29 moderate revision. 6.23 rework. 7.3 accept.

May I ask if the original poster has encountered this situation: after "with editor," the status changes to "decision in process." Does this mean the paper will be rejected or transferred?

Jia Chunhua 2023-07-04

May I ask if the original poster has encountered this situation: "with editor" followed by "decision in process". Does this mean that the submission will be rejected or should it be resubmitted?

1234567890 2023-06-06

Normal! It took me a month and a half to submit this with editor1 for review. It has been a total of four and a half months now, and I still haven't found a second reviewer.

混子G 2023-06-05

It has been 40 days with the editor, is this normal?

CaitliaChen 2023-06-03

May I ask, what does it mean when the date jumps once after being "under review" for a month? Does it mean that the reviewer cannot be found, and a second invitation is sent after a month? I am scared by everyone's reviewing speed.

May I ask who is in charge of editing your article?

尤四海 2023-05-11

I have also experienced the same situation as the original poster. I contacted 7 or 8 people, but no one answered, and I was rejected.

尤四海 2023-05-11

The editor is Chief Editor Ole Wendroth.

尤四海 2023-05-11

It took more than a year to receive, and the key point is that besides undergoing a peer review after the initial submission, the following two revisions remained in the hands of the editor for about 4 months each time. The speed is truly astonishing.

1234567890 2023-05-11

Actually, it's really hard to find reviewers now! Other journals invite reviewers more frequently and in larger numbers! Compared to them, this journal is relatively slower!

yo你一生一世 2023-05-10

I submitted another article to this journal. It has been over 10 days with the editor. I hope it will be reviewed soon.

yo你一生一世 2023-05-10

In English, the translated text would be: "In three months, we should have invited 3-4 people, but if no one was willing to review, we stopped inviting and rejected the submission."

1234567890 2023-05-10

How many reviewers did you invite? Did you not find all of them or did you not find any at all? I feel like this journal invites too few reviewers every time.

yo你一生一世 2023-05-09

Is it really difficult to find reviewers for this journal?

yo你一生一世 2023-05-09

Under review for more than 3 months, the final editor said they could not find a reviewer and rejected my submission, stating that it was to avoid delaying my article. I am speechless.

1234567890 2023-05-06

It has been 3 and a half months since submission, and it has been under review for 2 months. We still can't find the second reviewer. The first reviewer has already finished reviewing it a long time ago. I'm really speechless! I don't know when it will be reviewed. The editor only invites one reviewer each time, and only sends invitations twice a month, so the efficiency is quite low!

July 19, 2022 draft, July 23, editor review, August 23, major revision, deadline October 23. I procrastinated and didn't finish it until January 30, and submitted the major revision. On February 5, it went through a second review. On March 1, 2023, there were minor revisions, and it was submitted on April 11, 2023. On April 13, it was directly accepted. The efficiency was quite fast... I tend to procrastinate a lot.

The text translates to English as follows:

The draft was submitted on July 19, 2022, and on July 23, it was revised by the editor. On August 23, a major revision was made, with a deadline set for October 23. However, I kept procrastinating and delayed it until January 30, when the major revision was finally completed and submitted. On February 5, it was sent for review. On March 1, 2023, a minor revision was made, and on April 11, 2023, it was submitted again. Surprisingly, on April 13, it was accepted directly. The efficiency was quite fast... I tend to procrastinate.

1234567890 2023-03-29

Can I ask how you resolved this later? I am currently facing a similar situation as you, and it has been half a month since I submitted for review. Only one reviewer has reviewed it (and they have finished reviewing), while the other one has not been assigned to anyone, and the editor has not invited another reviewer again!

Great journal, prompt handling by the editor. The article may have a niche content, so it took some extra time to find reviewers. The reviewers were very professional and raised many questions, but their attitude was very gentle, and their suggestions greatly helped improve the article.

The Journal of Soil Science seems to be quite slow, unless it is related to the field of environment.

1234567890 2023-03-08

It has been 7 weeks since submission, and it is still "with editor"! Neither rejected nor sent for review, I really can't understand. Is it so difficult to make an initial decision for review?
