agsy-writing-style

Use when drafting or polishing an Agricultural Systems (AgSy) manuscript so it reads clearly for a systems-science audience, follows the journal's format, and meets front-matter requirements (abstract <= 250 words, Highlights, graphical abstract). Research papers run to about 8,000 words (no hard cap). Tightens prose and format; it does not invent content.

# Writing Style (agsy-writing-style)

An AgSy paper must be readable by a broad **systems-science** audience — agronomists, modellers,
economists, and environmental scientists — and prepared with the journal's front matter. This skill is
about communicating a systems analysis clearly and meeting Elsevier's format, not about generating
claims.

## When to trigger

- Drafting the introduction, framing the contribution, or final polish
- Writing the **≤ 250-word abstract**, the **Highlights**, or the **graphical abstract**
- Tightening a long methods/results section toward the ~8,000-word guideline
- Aligning references and format to the journal's style before submission
