Agricultural innovation: an analytical development from a bibliometric study: The agricultural innovation

Abstract

The objective of this article is to provide an overview of agricultural innovation that allows an evolutionary diagnosis over the last two decades, by means of a bibliometric analysis based on the concepts "agricultural innovation", "livestock innovation" or "agricultural technological change" in the period 2003-2022. A total of 462 documents obtained from the Scopus and Scielo databases were analyzed using descriptive statistics and bibliometric techniques through the VOSviewer software. The results show a clear dominance of the subject in Europe and North America, with little evidence of participation from Latin American countries, which represents an area of opportunity for researchers. Three lines of research were identified that confirm that agricultural innovation studies have had a growing development and will continue to be a topic of interest in the coming years.
