25 ABSTRACT
26 The abstract text should be formatted using 11 point Arial, justify (straight-edged) alignment,
27 single space. The abstract is concisely written in English UK or US consistently, containing
28 research background (1-2 sentence/s), research objective/s (1-2 sentence/s), research
29 methodology (1-3 sentence/s), results and discussion (1-5 sentence/s), and conclusion or
30 implication (1-2 sentence/s). Abstract may not refer to pictures, tables, or references.
31 Moreover, abstract is not part of the text and should be complete by itself. Since
32 contemporary information-retrieval systems rely heavily on the content of titles and abstracts
33 to identify relevant articles in literature searches, great care should be taken in constructing
34 both. The use of unusual abbreviations should be avoided. The common abbreviations must
35 be preceded by an explanation of what the acronym stands for is. In the results section it is
36 not recommended to use "statistical language" such as "significantly influence/affect,
37 significantly interact, etc.". The abstract is written in one paragraph using a one column
38 layout, the number of words between 150-250 words.
39
40 Keywords: keyword1; keyword2; keyword3; keyword4
41 (Keywords reflect the title and the topic of the manuscript. Maximum five words or phrases or
42 combination between words and phrases are allowed. Each keyword should be written in alphabetical
43 order (A-Z), separated by semicolon (“;”), without full stop at the end. Arial 11 point.)
44
45 Article structure
46 1. Section and Subsection
47 Article is divided into clearly defined and numbered sections. Subsections should be numbered 1.1
48 (then 1.1.1, 1.1.2, ...), 1.2, etc. (the abstract is not included in section numbering). The numbering is
49 also used for internal cross-referencing, thus do not just refer to 'the text'. Any subsection may be
50 given a brief heading. Each heading should appear on its own separate line. The text uses 11 point
51 Arial and 1.15 spacing. Each section’s paragraph should be justified. The margin in these manuscript
52 guidelines has been customed as follow: 3.0 cm for top and bottom margin and 2.5 cm for left and
53 right margin.
54 2. Figure and Table:
55 2.1. Figure
56 Ensure that each illustration has a caption. Supply captions separately, not attached to the
57 figure. A caption should comprise a brief title (not on the figure itself) and a description of
58 the illustration. Keep text in the illustrations themselves to a minimum but explain all
59 symbols and abbreviations used.
60 2.2. Tables
61 Please submit tables as editable text and not as images. Tables can be placed either next to
62 the relevant text in the article, or on separate page(s) at the end. Number tables consecutively
63 in accordance with their appearance in the text and place any table notes below the table
64 body. Be sparing in the use of tables and ensure that the data presented in them do not
65 duplicate results described elsewhere in the article. Please avoid using vertical rules.
66
67 1. Introduction
68 This section explains concisely the general background of research, review from the
69 previous research that relevant and up-to-date, novelty statement (gap analysis) that
70 contains the urgency and novelty of research, and the objectives or aims of research. If
71 there is a hypothesis, declare explicitly and not in interrogative sentence. Introduction
72 should be written without numbers and/or pointers. References are indicated by writing the
73 surname/last name of the author and year of publication, without page numbers. The
74 theoretical foundation is displayed in complete, concise sentences and is relevant to the
75 purpose of writing scientific articles. For the citations of source by two authors, both authors’
76 surnames should be mentioned and the year of publication. For three or more authors, write
77 the first author’s name followed by ‘et al.’ and the year of publication. For example: “Agrinika
78 et al. (2021) stated that the organic agriculture is an efficient and promising approach for
79 environmental sustainability as it provides yield stability, improves soil health and reduction
80 in the use of synthesized fertilizers”. Citations may be made directly or parenthetically.
81 Groups of references should be listed first alphabetically, then chronologically. Examples:
82 (Agrinika, 2020a, 2020b….)
83

84 2. Methodology
85 This section contains research design that include material, equipment, and
86 procedures for experimental/laboratory research as well as population/sample of research
87 for field/survey-based research. Data and techniques/instrument of data collections,
88 analysis tools and models used should also be mentioned clearly. Provide sufficient detail to
89 allow the work to be reproduced. Commonly methods no needs to be written in details, but
90 simply refers to the references book (Example: F test formula, t test). Symbol description on
91 model is written in sentence. All size and quantity of the material used in
92 experimental/laboratory research must follow the standard determined by the producers by
93 citing the relevant reference. Methods already published should be indicated by a reference:
94 only relevant modifications should be described. Name the number of samples and give
95 courtesy to whom you obtain the sample. State seasonal variation of the habitat (if
96 applicable) or date of sampling. Human materials should be collected in conformation to
97 standard ethics and with written informed consent.
98

99 3. Results and Discussion

100 This section displays the results of empirical research or theoretical studies that are
101 written in a systematic, critical, and informative analysis. This section contains the result of
102 data analysis (in table or figure, not in a raw data, and not a print screen/screenshot of
103 analysis result), the connections between the result and basic concept and/or hypothesis (if
104 there is), and conformity or contradiction with the result of previous study. This section can
105 also contain an implication from the result of research, both theoretically and appropriately.
106 The use of tables and figures is a supporting item that clarifies the discussion and is
107 limited to genuinely substantial supporters, for example, statistical test results tables,
108 images of model testing results, etc. Discussion of the results is argumentative concerning
109 the relevance of the results, theories, previous research, and empirical facts found, and
110 shows the novelty of the findings. Images or graphics must be displayed clearly. Titles are
111 placed above for tables and for figure titles are placed below, with left alignment text.
112

113
114 Figure 1. Example figure for reference
115
116 Avoid explanations of tables and figures by using the words "table above, the image
117 below, following table"; but state the table using names like Table 1, Figure 2, etc. Table 1,
118 Figure 2, ... must be written in bold. The table and figure title are written in sentence case
119 (capitalize for the first word only). Each figure and table must be referred to in the text.
120 Descriptions of tables and figures must be clear so that they can be understood by the
121 reader. Preferred references come from journals that have been published for at least the
122 last 10 years, proceedings, and or books. The proportion of journals is 80% with a minimum
123 bibliography of 20 references is presented using the Reference Management application,
124 namely Mendeley. All text in the table or figure title uses Arial font 11 pt, except the table or
125 figure source and description use the Arial font 10 pt.

129 Description: astatistically significant at alpha 5%; bstatistically significant at alpha 10%
130
131 Results and Discussion should be written separately. The discussion should explore
132 the significance of the results of the work, not repeat them. Discuss your data by comparing
133 the current reported data with previous results but avoid extensive citations and discussion
134 of published literature. Highlight similarities, as well as differences, and the uniqueness of
135 your findings. End the discussion by giving a conclusion and future research in that
136 particular topic.
137

138 4. Conclusion
139 This section contains a brief narrative of the results regarding the research objectives
140 and suggestions (if needed). Conclusions should answer the objectives or research
141 hypotheses, do not expressed in statistical sentences, and do not repeat the discussion.
142 Conclusion is written in one paragraph in essay form, not numerical form. Conclusion is
143 written critically, logically, and honestly based on facts, and full of cautions if there is a
144 generalization. Tell readers how research can advance today's field of science. Provide a
145 clear scientific justification for research and indicate possible applications. Author(s) can
146 also suggest future experiments or research and/or indicate ongoing experiments.
147

148 Acknowledgements
149 Acknowledgments are written using Arial font 11 pt, justify alignment. It should be
150 written as short as possible. Collate acknowledgements in a separate section at the end of
151 the article before the references and do not, therefore, include them on the title page, as a
152 footnote to the title or otherwise. Any grants/assistance requiring recognition must be
153 mentioned. The names of the funding organizations also must be written. Author(s) may
154 acknowledge the contribution of professional colleagues and partners in the research (e.g.,
155 providing language help, writing assistance, or proofreading the article, etc.).
156

157 References
158 References should be arranged first alphabetically and then further sorted chronologically if
159 necessary. More than one reference from the same author(s) in the same year must be
160 identified by the letters 'a', 'b', 'c', etc., placed after the year of publication. The reference
161 contains a list of journals, proceedings, books, or the other publications referenced in
162 published manuscripts in the last 10 years. The minimum amount of reference is 20, and
163 80% of it is journals library. References are arranged in alphabetical order by the author's
164 last name, using the APA style, and using Mendeley. The font is Arial 11 pt, indentation
165 hanging by 1.0 cm, single line spacing single, and after spacing is 12 pt). Examples are
166 below:
