Review Process for Manuscripts Submitted to The Agricultural Economics, Social, and Environment Journal (AESE Journal):

In the Review Process or Step, all contributions are typically dispatched to a minimum of two independent expert reviewers for the evaluation of the paper's scientific quality. Upon receipt of the manuscript, the editor will scrutinize it to ensure alignment with the journal's scope and instructions, a process that usually takes about one week.

Reviewers are contacted before receiving a paper and are requested to provide comments within a two-week timeframe for most papers. In case of delays in the reviewers' responses, a reminder will be issued to prompt the submission of comments within one week.

The reviewers' comments will be relayed to the author, who will be asked to submit the corrected version within a two-week period. Following the reception of the revised manuscript, the author will receive an acceptance letter, notifying them that their paper has been accepted for publication in the upcoming issue of the journal.

The final decision regarding the acceptance or rejection of articles rests with the Editor, whose decision is considered conclusive.
