The journal is a scientific avenue where researchers, academics, policymakers, industry experts, and development practitioners publish high-quality original research, reviews, technical reports, case studies, etc. to discuss the modern issues in the agricultural production and ecological sustainability. JSAFNR aims at encouraging sustainable agricultural systems that can be able to improve food security, rural livelihoods, and economic resilience without compromising ecological balance. It receives contributions to the field of crop science, horticulture, soil fertility management, agricultural economics, extension services, animal science, fisheries and aquaculture, forestry, wildlife conservation, climate-smart agriculture, food technology, agroecology, biodiversity management, and land resource systems.

The journal especially focuses more on interdisciplinary studies that examine the relationship between food production systems and the environment resources. It promotes new research on the use of renewable resources, sustainable value chains, food safety, waste minimization, ecosystem restoration, water management, and policy changes that will help transform agriculture in the long run. The aim of JSAFNR is to close the gap between scientific discovery and practicality by publishing articles that have a clear relevance to farmers, agribusiness, government agencies and other international development agencies. The journal also promotes new studies in the areas of digital agriculture, precision farming, biotechnology, green innovations and climate adaptation methods in developing and developed economies. The Journal of Sustainable Agriculture, Food Ecology, and Natural Resource Systems is dedicated to academic excellence, ethical publishing, and global publicity with a vision of becoming a top source of reference in research related to sustainable development in Africa and other parts of the world. It is a vital source of ideas which define the future of agriculture, food systems, and environmental stewardship.
