Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science focuses on research into soil-plant interactions. We cover the spectrum of plant nutrition and soil science across different scale units, including both agroecosystems and natural systems.
Our journal has been a leader in the field internationally for over a century, and is published in partnership with the German Societies of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science. We are also a cooperating journal of the International Union of Soil Science.

Manuscript Transfer Program
Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science works together with other titles to ensure that as much research submitted can be published as possible. These titles include Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, Applied and Environmental Soil Science, and Plant-Environment Interactions, a Wiley open access journal, to enable rapid publication of good quality research. Plant-Environment Interactions aims to deliver progress in the plant and environmental sciences by publishing good quality research that builds on our understanding of plants and their environment, but is not necessarily novel. If unsuccessful in Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, authors will be offered the option of having their paper, along with any related peer reviews, automatically transferred to Plant-Environment Interactions or other titles for consideration.
