MANJARI accepts manuscripts written in English or Bengali only. Articles must be written clearly, concisely and in a prescribed format. Strict economy of words, tables, formulas, and figures should be observed, and specialized jargons should be avoided. Articles of excessive length are returned for condensation. Manuscripts must be submitted in final form and those requiring extensive editing or rewriting are returned without review.
For now, the publication costs for MANJARI are covered by the NTFP Centre of Excellence, so authors do not need to pay any article-processing charge.
