Correction and Retraction

Jurnal Agroteknologi (Agronu) is committed to maintaining the integrity, accuracy, and completeness of scientific records. In certain rare situations, action may be required to correct, clarify, or retract published articles.

Article Correction

Corrections are made when errors are found in published articles that require improvement but do not undermine the overall validity of the results and conclusions. These errors may include writing, information, tables, images, data, or other parts that require clarification or correction.

Authors and readers who find errors can report them to the Journal's Editorial Team via email at rumahjurnalumnu@gmail.com. The report must include the article title, author's name, volume, number, year of publication, DOI or article link (if available), description of the error, and supporting evidence and suggestions for improvement.

Upon receipt of the report, the Editorial Team will evaluate the information submitted and, if necessary, request clarification from the author. If corrections are deemed necessary, the journal may publish a notice of correction describing the corrected section and ascertaining its relevance to the original article.

Article Retraction

An article is recalled if the results of the evaluation show that the article contains serious problems that may affect the reliability or integrity of the publication. This can include falsification or fabrication of data, serious plagiarism, unjustified double publication, violation of research ethics, or fundamental errors that cause the article's results and conclusions to be unreliable.

Suspected problems can be reported by authors, readers, reviewers, editors, academic institutions, or other parties who have relevant information and evidence. The report is submitted to the Editorial Team via the editor's official email or written letter, by including the identity of the article, a detailed description of the problem, and available supporting evidence.

The Editorial Team will conduct an objective assessment and seek clarification from the author or related parties if necessary. The decision to retract is determined based on the results of the examination and the extent of the problem found. If an article needs to be retracted, the journal will publish a notice of withdrawal explaining the reason for the withdrawal and associating it with the original article. The retracted article will be given a clear marker so that its status is known to readers and its publication can still be tracked

.

Each report will be handled professionally, objectively, and with confidentiality. Whistleblowers are expected to convey information honestly, responsibly, and based on verifiable evidence. Reporting alleged errors does not necessarily mean that the article will be corrected or retracted; decisions are made after adequate evaluation.

We are committed to carrying out the correction and retraction process in a transparent and responsible manner to maintain the trust of readers and the integrity of scientific publications.
