Panduan Penulis

General Information

Manuscripts must be original and have not been previously published in any scientific journal. They must also not be under consideration for publication elsewhere during the review process. Manuscripts may not be submitted to any other media unless formally withdrawn from BERNAS: Jurnal Penelitian Pertanian.

A similarity check supported by Turnitin is employed to prevent plagiarism. Authors are expected to explicitly cite the work and ideas of others, even when these are not quoted verbatim or paraphrased. This standard applies to both published and unpublished works or those available electronically. Failure to properly attribute other works may be considered plagiarism, which constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable.

The journal enforces a minimum similarity score of below 20%. Manuscripts with scores exceeding this threshold must be revised or rejected.

Scope of Submission

Manuscripts submitted should be within the following areas: Agronomy, Horticulture and Forestry, Landscape Architecture, Veterinary Medicine, Economics and Rural Development, Land Surveying and Improvement, Natural and Social Sciences, Agricultural Machinery, Environment, Food Industry, and related fields.

Publication Frequency

The journal is published three times a year: in April, August, and December.

Manuscript Structure 

Manuscripts must be written in Indonesian and adhere to scientific writing standards.

Manuscripts should be prepared using Microsoft Word, with graphs created in Microsoft Excel and images in JPEG or PDF format.

Text should use Arial Narrow font, size 12 pt, and be single-spaced throughout, including the abstract, body text, references, appendices, tables, and figures. Titles should use 14 pt, bold, uppercase, and centered formatting.
