Abstract:

Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) has become a central element in driving the greening agenda in agriculture. An in-depth exploration of global progress of CSA research globally can help to improve the level of understanding and assessment of the field by both academics and practitioners alike. Based on the Web of Science database resources, this paper analyzed the international CSA research hotspots using a bibliometric approach, based on 814 papers published on CSA topics between 2014-01-01 and 2023-08-11. The main findings were as follows: (1) since 2018, there had been a notable surge in the publication of CSA-related papers and subsequent citations. The core of CSA research predominantly revolved around environmental science, sustainability studies, agronomy, and interdisciplinary fields; (2) Keyword hotspots mainly included climate-smart agriculture, climate change, adoption, conservation agriculture, management, food security, mitigation, and farmers, etc.; (3) The research hotspots mainly included conservation agriculture, the impact and quantification of CSA on soil organic carbon, the effects of CSA application in different regions, the key factors affecting the adoption of CSA by farmers, and CSA-related decision support, which revealed that the effects of CSA implementation vary in different countries and regions, and that the key factors for the adoption of CSA by farmers were diversified, which suggested that policymakers must consider diversified factors comprehensively when designing and implementing CSA strategies to ensure the effective promotion and localized application of CSA measures across the globe. This suggested that policymakers should consider the diversity of factors when designing and implementing CSA strategies to ensure the effective promotion and localized application of CSA measures in all parts of the world; (4) The 25 references with a surge in citations from 2014−2023 were mainly focused on the core topics of conservation agriculture, the application and challenges of CSA, as well as the impacts of climate change on agriculture and coping strategies.
