摘要
This paper attempts to highlight quantitatively and qualitatively the growth and development of global agricultural science publication output and citations as per Web of science during 1993-2012. The objective of this study was to perform a scientometric analysis of all agricultural science research publications in the world. The parameters studied include growth of publications and citations, continent-wise distribution of publications and citations, country-wise distribution of publications, publication efficiency index, domain-wise distribution of publications and citations, specialization index, variation of average impact factor in agricultural science sub-domains, language-wise distribution of publications, distribution of high frequency keywords, identification of highly cited publications and highly preferred journals.
