The editor-in-chief was being very serious, and evaluated and reviewed the manuscript by himself, but it was a bit slow indeed. The manuscript was submitted in 2018, and it was accepted in 2019. The issue number was given in 2020. This~~~

A major revision was required after 3 months of first review, and a minor revision was required in the second review. Perhaps it may be delayed for the reviewer’s vacation. It was two months later that I received the second review recommendation of revision. The journal is good, the content of the articles is very good, and there are few valueless articles in it. In addition, the IF rises fast. Agricultural engineering and technology, especially 3S, spatial variability, and related GIS, are in line with journal topics.

Hello experts, do we need to submit a Cover Letter when submitting materials to this journal? I didn't see this option, should I submit it as an attachment?

2022.09 Submission
2022.03 Major Revision
2022.04 Accepted
Fruit ripeness estimation based on remote sensing.
To be honest, the review process took quite a long time, and I thought it would be rejected.
One of the three reviewers thought it was not suitable for publication and wanted to reject it, but fortunately it was not rejected in the end.

After submitting the manuscript on October 30, 2022, it has been under consideration. I would like to ask if anyone has encountered a similar situation. I don't know if it has been sent for external review.

From submission to acceptance, a total of 381 days were spent, which included one major revision and two minor revisions. The review process took approximately one year.

When submitting, is there no template for Statements and Declarations? Do I not need to add line numbers myself? The automatically generated line numbers are awkward.

How long has it been since I submitted it for review? How long does it usually take for the original poster's review?

How long does the second review take? The second review has been under review for two months, and there have been no changes.

Two reviewers expressed their anticipation for my response, both gave me major revisions. I felt confident that I could address those issues, but the editor rejected it. Speechless.

Please submit your work quickly. Editors must review their own manuscripts and must go to the field to collect data. Otherwise, the submission will be rejected.

When I first invested, it was still in the first district. After just a couple of days, the new zoning result came out and it became the second district. Speechless, how much longer will it be under consideration?

The article was submitted in July 2020 and received major revisions in October. After the revisions, it was under consideration for two months, and then under review for over a month. There were minor revisions in the second round of review. After resubmission, the reviewer had no major issues. The third round of review was probably requested by the editor-in-chief, followed by a fourth round of review, but they were all minor revisions. Finally, it was accepted in April 2021. The process took about 9-10 months, luckily I wasn't in a hurry to graduate. However, the journal has a low acceptance rate each year, and it feels like they have strict standards. I hope PA (possibly referring to the journal name or field) continues to improve.

I have also been under consideration for two and a half months, and now it has changed to under review. This is my second review...

Generally, materials under consideration may take 1-2 months before they become under review. The reviewing process of journals tends to be relatively slow.

May I ask if the review status of the journal will change? It has been under consideration all along, and I do not know the reason.

I have submitted two articles. The first one was submitted in October 2018. I received minor revisions in April 2019 and it was accepted in May. The second one was submitted in October 2019. I received major revisions in March 2020 and it was accepted in May 2020 after the revisions. The main focus of my research is agricultural remote sensing, and the acceptance rate is relatively high for articles that involve 3S technology. The journal has a low annual publication quantity, but its impact factor has been rapidly increasing in recent years. I hope the journal continues to improve.
