Clear scientific writing improves review efficiency and reader understanding. JPA encourages authors to use language editing services when needed, especially for manuscripts that integrate field data and interdisciplinary methods.

• Grammar and syntax review for clarity
• Consistency checks for terminology and abbreviations
• Formatting alignment with journal style
• Language polishing for complex methodology descriptions
• Clarify terminology for sensors, platforms, and variable rate technologies.
• Use consistent units and SI notation across tables and figures.
• Define acronyms such as VRT, UAV, IoT, and DSS at first use.
• Ensure field zone names and identifiers match across text and figures.
• Standardize crop stage descriptors and management timing language.
• Standardize cultivar or hybrid names throughout the manuscript.
• Use consistent geospatial terminology for zones and grids.
• Define sensor model names and firmware versions clearly.
• Check that units are consistent across text, tables, and figures.
• Ensure management timing is described with calendar dates.
• Avoid unexplained abbreviations in figure labels.
• Ensure zone names and field IDs match across all figures.
• Avoid mixed unit systems within the same table or chart.
