Aims & Scope

Bioagro is a scientific journal of the Agronomy Faculty of the Universidad Centroccidental "Lisandro Alvarado" (UCLA), in Barquisimeto, Venezuela. Its periodicity is triannual and is published on the first day of the months of January, May and September. The journal is aimed, mainly but not exclusively, at professionals and technicians in the agricultural area. The objective of the journal is the publication of original scientific papers in agricultural sciences that focus on aspects of agronomy, botany and plant breeding, entomology, soils, plant pathology and plant protection, agricultural engineering, genetics and plant breeding, ecology, industry and agricultural processing, forage production, biotechnology and social topics. Short articles may also be published in which scientific discoveries, technological developments and comprehensive diagnostics results are presented in the form of Technical Notes. The journal gives preference to specific articles based on direct experimentation and whose results are interpreted in the light of inferential statistics, and eventually, to articles derived from descriptive research. We will not consider review articles, opinion pieces, or papers with only preliminary results.
