You can help by [editing the page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:EditPage/List_of_open-access_journals) to add missing items, with references to [reliable sources](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources). This is a **list of [open-access journals](/source/Open-access_journal)** by field. The list contains notable journals which have a policy of full open access. It does not include [delayed open access journals](/source/Delayed_open_access_journal), [hybrid open access journals](/source/Hybrid_open_access_journal), or related collections or indexing services. True open-access journals can be split into two categories: - [diamond or platinum open-access journals](/source/Diamond_open_access), which charge no additional publication, open access or article processing fees - [gold open-access journals](/source/Gold_Open_Access), which charge publication fees (also called [article processing charges](/source/Article_processing_charge), APCs). ## Agriculture - *[African Journal of Food, Agriculture, Nutrition and Development](/source/African_Journal_of_Food%2C_Agriculture%2C_Nutrition_and_Development)* -
