All submitted manuscripts are read by the editorial board. Those manuscripts evaluated by editors to be inappropriate to journal criteria are rejected promptly without external review. Manuscripts evaluated to be of potential interest to our readership are sent to reviewers. The editors then make a decision based on the reviewer’s recommendation from among several possibilities: rejected, require major revision, need minor revision, or accepted.

For writers who want to submit the manuscript publication is expected to pay attention to the following rules:
-The article is not a plagiarism of other people's work.
-Article sent has never been published and not under consideration for publication in another journal.
-Articles should be sent according to the Journal of Fisheries Sustainability (JOFIS)
