Article processing charges (APCs)
Archives Animal Breeding is committed to the open-access model of publishing. This ensures free web access to the results of research and maximum visibility for published papers. However, it requires the author or a supporting institution to pay the costs of the administration and infrastructure of the review process, production of final papers, journal article publication, distribution, and long-term archiving. The first 6 pages are covered by the author through an APC of €62 net per page. If a paper exceeds 6 pages, each additional page will be covered by the Research Institute for Farm Animal Biology (FBN).
APCs are levied for any pages included in the produced article's *.pdf file, including appendices, the reference list, acknowledgements, disclaimers, review statements, code and data availability statements, and other such information sections. The supplement, however, is free of charge since it is not part of the main article's *.pdf file.
