What journals does the Poultry Science Association publish?

Updated

The Poultry Science Association (PSA) publishes two named journals on its website: Poultry Science® and the Journal of Applied Poultry Research (JAPR). A third title, European Poultry Science, is also listed under its publications. If you are looking for where to read or submit poultry science research, these are the publication venues the association presents.

The journals at a glance

Journal What the site says about it Likely audience
Poultry Science® Described as an international journal that publishes original papers Researchers seeking peer-reviewed original research
Journal of Applied Poultry Research (JAPR) Listed as a PSA publication alongside Poultry Science® Readers interested in applied, practice-oriented poultry research
European Poultry Science Listed under the publications overview Readers following European poultry science work

The site's own description of Poultry Science® is the most detailed: it is "an international journal" that "publishes original papers." That phrasing tells you the core content type — original research rather than reviews, news, or trade content.

What else the publications section offers

Beyond the journal titles themselves, the PSA publications area points to supporting resources:

  • Interpretive Summaries — plain-language explanations of research
  • Infographics — visual summaries of published work
  • PSA Postings — association-published items
  • Podcast — audio content tied to the publications program

These are useful if you want the substance of a paper without reading the full technical text, or if you are teaching and need accessible material.

How to use this

  • To read research: start from the Publications section and choose the journal that matches your field — Poultry Science® for original international research, JAPR for applied work.
  • To submit a paper: the site lists the journals but does not spell out submission steps on the home page. Go to the individual journal's page from the Publications overview for author information.
  • To stay current cheaply: check the Interpretive Summaries and Infographics before committing to full articles.

One caution: the home page shows a "Log in" link and mentions "subscribe" in its keyword signals, so some content or member features may sit behind an account. The site does not state that journal access is free, so do not assume it is — check the specific journal page for access terms.
