I got a paper published in crop science, but why did its impact factor decrease again? This journal has a good reputation in the field of crop cultivation, so why can't it rise up? It's frustrating.

The peer reviewers were very diligent in reviewing the manuscript. They provided several pages of feedback in the first round of review, and we made careful revisions based on their suggestions. However, the review process was too slow, and the responsible editor did not take much responsibility. The first round of review took three months, and the editor did not follow up on the progress during this time. The second round of review was also slow, even though the revisions were already made. It should have taken no more than a month to complete the review, but the editor did not monitor the process and allowed the reviewers to delay. The second round of review took nearly two months

May I ask how long it usually takes for you to review and give the results?

The review process is too slow.

Hello, may I ask how long it takes to be in production after being hired? How long does it take to be indexed in Web of Science? And how long will it take to notify those who have submitted papers exceeding seven pages? There is a time limit for the scholarship evaluation at the school, which is quite overwhelming.

As an old mainstream journal, we hope to do better and quickly return to Zone 2.

Hello, may I ask how much page fee is required after being hired? Did you choose full access or free access when submitting? I noticed that this journal seems to have quite a few pages, usually more than ten? I haven't submitted yet, so I'm asking you in advance.

If it does not exceed 7 pages, no layout fee is required. For pages exceeding seven, a charge of $50 per page will be applied.

Have you paid the layout fee?

Every time, it takes about a month to receive feedback. The requirements may vary depending on the editor. In total, there were two rounds of revisions. The page fee is very affordable, much cheaper than the Agronomy Journal. As long as there are no major issues with the language and it is a field experiment, it should generally be accepted. Hopefully, it can return to the second tier this year.

The article was submitted on December 5 2019, and the result wasn’t returned until January 30 2020. It was recommended to be rejected and resubmitted (it is actually major revision, many journals are like this, in order to reduce the so-called review cycle). It took less than one month for the second review, which was from February 14 to March 10 (urged during the period), and minor revision was required. It was resubmitted on March 13, and one week later, it was accepted. The overall speed was average.

The quality of articles published in Crop Science is quite high. Crop Science has also become one of the TOP journals in this discipline; however, the impact factor doesn’t reflect this.
