Publishing the second Edition of 2025

In the first week of October, the second issue of the Revista de Ciências Agroveterinárias (Journal of Agricultural and Veterinary Sciences) was published, consolidating the new editorial format that will be adopted in all upcoming editions.

The new model expands the information presented in the articles, including data availability, references to ethical codes, acknowledgments, funding statements, and other relevant elements that promote transparency and scientific reproducibility.

Starting with this issue, all articles are being published exclusively in English, aiming to broaden the journal’s international visibility.

The XML markup for the first issue has already been made available, while we await feedback from the company contracted by UDESC regarding the delivery of the XML markup for the second issue.

Regarding the third and fourth issues, we are still awaiting the Portuguese-to-English translation from a specialized company contracted by UDESC. Therefore, the third and fourth issues are scheduled for publication by the end of November. 

While the PDF versions in both languages will be made available by the end of November, the XML markup for these issues is expected to be released only in early 2026, due to the closure of the fiscal year.

Starting in 2026, the journal will adopt a continuous publication flow and the ahead of print system, expediting the dissemination of scientific knowledge. Additionally, a more rigorous control of the number of published articles will be implemented, with the goal of enhancing the quality and impact of the contributions.

We appreciate your continued support and for being part of the Revista de Ciências Agroveterinárias.
