| From the Network ... Resource Spotlight: The PMN Cross Journal Search Agricultural and horticultural professionals are very busy people, often looking for just the bottom-line information. With this in mind, PMN developed the Cross-Journal Search, which searches the abstracts of our nonprofit publishing partners' peer-reviewed, applied journals. These abstracts often contain free, bottom-line information that practitioners can glean and apply to the field. And while the full-text version of some articles may also be available, a subscription is generally required by our partners to see the full text. View PMN's full list of resources.
