Abstract

Digitalization is emerging as a key factor in transforming production processes and innovation in agriculture, particularly in the realm of digital agriculture. This research analyzes the trends in innovation management within digital agriculture. Its objective is to identify patterns, opportunities, and research threats in this field. To achieve this, published data from the Scopus database from 2000 to 2025 has been examined. The bibliometric tool VOSviewer version 1.6.20 was used for data analysis. In this study, 1,247 articles were selected as the statistical population. Based on the results, the number of articles published in this area has been continuously increasing, with approximately 49.4% of the articles published in the period from 2020 to 2025. This study also identifies the main keywords in this field, showing that “precision agriculture,” with 62 occurrences and a connection strength of 160, holds the highest significance. Four main clusters have been identified, including emerging technologies in agriculture, sustainability and climate change, digital economy, and innovation and entrepreneurship. The United States and the United Kingdom are recognized as the primary countries for scientific research and innovation, while China and India have emerged as active players in this domain. The results of this research emphasize the necessity for increased investment in new technologies and the development of effective strategies to advance digital agriculture and achieve sustainability.
