Abstract

Invertebrates form a vital component of agricultural ecosystems, and they are chief actors in sustaining the functions of the ecosystem and soil health. Scholarly publications that concentrated on visualizing the research outputs and trends on invertebrates and agriculture are scarce. In this paper, we adopted a bibliometric model to extract trends/research studies on invertebrates and agriculture between 1991 and 2022, using scholarly studies retrieved from the Web of Science (WoS) databank. Therefore, the aim of the study is to assess and analyse publications and findings on research studies/trends on invertebrates and agriculture. A total of 1201 articles were recovered from the WoS databank with average citations per doc and coauthors per document ratio of 31.22 and 4.79, respectively. Studies on invertebrates and agriculture research studies were positively correlated with the number of years (R 2 = 0.7803; y = 3.4661x - 19.659) signifying an upsurge in the amount of publications on this topic in the near future. The United States maintained a top position in terms of published outputs (n = 312) and citations (n = 14,113), followed by Germany (n = 75; n = 3686) and the United Kingdom (n = 70; n = 3117), respectively. Articles from the United States (n = 67) and China (n = 32) had strong networks with other nations of the world. Top subject priorities in this research field in terms of author keywords are agriculture (n = 141), biodiversity (n = 66), arthropods (n = 66) and biological control/ecosystem services (n = 46). From our findings, economically stable nations such as the United States, Germany, China, the United Kingdom and Australia are carrying out more research on this subject matter compared to the developing countries. We also found out that from the thematic evolution and literature results, invertebrate research in the context of agriculture is tending towards biogeography, farmland biodiversity, insecticides and organic agriculture, which are of immense importance to scientists and researchers in this research domain, thus signifying the direction/path of future research.

农业背景下全球无脊椎动物相关研究的描述性映射。
无脊椎动物是农业生态系统的重要组成部分,是维持生态系统功能和土壤健康的主要行为体。将无脊椎动物和农业的研究成果和趋势可视化的学术出版物很少。本文采用文献计量模型,利用Web of Science (WoS)数据库中检索到的学术研究,提取1991 - 2022年间无脊椎动物和农业的趋势/研究。因此,这项研究的目的是评估和分析关于无脊椎动物和农业的研究/趋势的出版物和结果。从WoS数据库中检索到1201篇论文,平均被引频次为31.22次,平均合著作者比为4.79次。无脊椎动物研究和农业研究与年数呈正相关(r2 = 0.7803;Y = 3.4661x - 19.659),表明在不久的将来,关于这一主题的出版物数量将激增。美国在出版产出(n = 312)和引用(n = 14,113)方面保持领先地位,其次是德国(n = 75);n = 3686)和英国(n = 70;N = 3117)。来自美国(n = 67)和中国(n = 32)的文章与世界其他国家有很强的联系。在作者关键词方面,该研究领域最优先的课题是农业(n = 141)、生物多样性(n = 66)、节肢动物(n = 66)和生物防治/生态系统服务(n = 46)。从我们的研究结果来看,与发展中国家相比,经济稳定的国家,如美国、德国、中国、英国和澳大利亚,正在对这一主题进行更多的研究。我们还发现,从主题演变和文献结果来看,农业背景下的无脊椎动物研究正在向生物地理学、农田生物多样性、杀虫剂和有机农业方向发展,这对该研究领域的科学家和研究人员具有重要意义,从而标志着未来研究的方向/路径。
