《农业系统》是一份国际期刊，讨论农业系统各组成部分之间、农业系统各层次之间、农业和其他土地利用系统之间以及农业系统与其自然、社会和经济环境之间的相互作用。提交给农业系统的稿件一般应包括以下两项:实质性的自然科学内容(特别是农场或景观级别的生物学或生态学，有时与社会科学相结合)对农业系统组成部分和其他系统内部或之间的相互作用进行实质性分析和讨论。优先考虑那些通过概念、经验和动态建模方法的综合处理整个农场和景观水平问题的手稿。范围包括在下列领域发展和应用系统分析方法:可持续农业集约化的系统方法;可持续强化的途径;农畜集成;农场层次的资源分配;量化农场与景观之间的利益和权衡;农业系统和决策的定性和定量评估的综合、参与性和动态模型方法;农业景观与非农业景观的互动农业系统的多重服务;粮食安全与环境;全球变化与适应科学;由气候、政策、价值观和态度的变化推动的转型适应，影响农业系统的设计;开发和应用农业系统设计工具和方法进行影响、场景和案例分析;管理动态农业系统的复杂性;创新系统和多方利益相关者安排，支持或促进变革，并(或)告知政策决策。

Agricultural Systems is an international journal that deals with interactions - among the components of agricultural systems, among hierarchical levels of agricultural systems, between agricultural and other land use systems, and between agricultural systems and their natural, social and economic environments. Manuscripts submitted to Agricultural Systems generally should include both of the following:Substantive natural science content (especially farm- or landscape-level biology or ecology, sometimes combined with social sciences), andSubstantive analysis and discussion of the interactions within or among agricultural systems components and other systems.Preference is given to manuscripts that address whole-farm and landscape level issues, via integration of conceptual, empirical and dynamic modelling approaches.The scope includes the development and application of systems analysis methodologies in the following areas:Systems approaches in the sustainable intensification of agriculture; pathways for sustainable intensification; crop-livestock integration; farm-level resource allocation; quantification of benefits and trade-offs at farm to landscape levels; integrative, participatory and dynamic modelling approaches for qualitative and quantitative assessments of agricultural systems and decision making;The interactions between agricultural and non-agricultural landscapes; the multiple services of agricultural systems; food security and the environment;Global change and adaptation science; transformational adaptations as driven by changes in climate, policy, values and attitudes influencing the design of farming systems;Development and application of farming systems design tools and methods for impact, scenario and case study analysis; managing the complexities of dynamic agricultural systems; innovation systems and multi stakeholder arrangements that support or promote change and (or) inform policy decisions.
