Abstract :
[en] After a brief historical review, this article presents the current situation of the journal BASE, its objectives, its challenges, its functioning and its limitations. BASE is a journal that publishes articles in Open Access in the field of agronomic sciences in the broad sense and offers a free service to authors. The editorial board pays particular attention to the transparency of its validation and editing processes. The figures presented allow BASE to find its place alongside all international scientific
journals. At the end of the article, after describing the difficulties encountered, several perspectives are described. These should address the possible disadvantages of the multidisciplinary nature of BASE.
