Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Nondestructive testing technology and equipment have gained importance in the agricultural sector in recent years. This technology is essential in enabling the noninvasive and accurate determination of the quality of agricultural products, which is crucial for food safety and meeting the demands of the global population.

The objective of this Special Issue is to present the most recent developments in the field. The papers solicited for this Special Issue focus on a range of topics, including sensing-data-processing models, as well as laboratory and analytical techniques and instrumentation, with a specific focus on 3D imaging and tomography, which facilitate the visualization of internal structures and defects in agricultural products. Additionally, the Special Issue emphasizes calibration-free sensing-data-processing models.

Overall, this Special Issue seeks to highlight the cutting-edge nondestructive testing technology and equipment for the agricultural industry and provide a platform for researchers to showcase their latest findings and innovations in this field.

Dr. Tong Lei

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Agriculture is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
