“Our paper published in Experimental Results has one of the highest altimetric scores in the journal. In fact, is has the highest altimetric score of any paper I’ve published. Just because it’s a short paper (700 words) and it’s something incremental, doesn’t mean it can’t be sexy!” explained Dr. Punit Shah, Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) in Psychology at the University of Bath.
Associate Professor Benjamin Walther at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi reflects on the value of getting a peer reviewed paper out of his research with negative results, while making a positive contribution to his field, boosting his publication record, and helping to secure additional funding to further his research.
As an ecologist, I am interested in conserving forgotten crop landraces and vanishing cropping systems of indigenous agrarian societies. Indigenous food production systems are always polycrop systems, growing diverse food and non-food crops on marginal lands, depending no external materials (e.g. agrochemicals, machiney, fossil fuel). Dozens of experimental studies proved the superior productive efficacy of multiple cropping systems, growing mostly 2 or 3 crops), over monocultures promoted by modern, industrial agriculture.
