A Bibliometric and Thematic Approach to Digital Agriculture Research
Öz
This study presents a bibliometric analysis aiming to identify research trends, main themes and strategic issues in the field of digital agriculture from 2019 to 2023. The number of publications, author productivity, citations and keyword trends were assessed by analyzing 508 publications obtained from the Scopus database with Bibliometrix software. The findings show a notable increase in academic output around the main themes of data governance, agricultural data and data access. This study contributes to the field by systematically mapping existing knowledge and research gaps and provides valuable insights for future research. Prominent findings include the integration of technological innovations in agriculture and their impact on productivity and sustainability. The study recommends the development of technological infrastructure and the provision of farmer training programs to promote the effective adoption of digital agricultural technologies.
