Bibliometric Analysis of Integrated Pest Management Practices

Integrated pest management (IPM) is a wide-ranging strategy that involves tactics for the structural control of pests and diseases, also known as integrated (IPC). The prime aim this study to explore global scientific publications regarding map recent trends in innovative research domain, thereby providing future directions based on dynamic observations. Bibliometric assessment used provide more detailed evaluation existing state IPM, which will ultimately lead policymakers develop novel measures promote efficient utilisation IPM measure. explores Web Science (WoS) core collection database covering published articles from 1993 2022, we evaluated 1217 articles. employed Biblioshiny app (V4.1, K-Synth, Naples, Italy), specially designed Bibliometrix R package, robust Java-based application, namely CiteSpace (V6.2.R3, Chaomei Chen, Philadelphia, PA, USA), convert, process, visualise evaluate selected dataset. Moreover, utilised another VOSViewer (Leiden University, Leiden, Netherlands), comprehensive visualisation. Based citation analysis, presented list top 10 count, institutes, journals, countries. By carefully evaluating co-occurrence network, structurally represents 9 clusters 20 keywords, be assisted researcher understanding key terms by prior density criteria. strategic coordinate mapping keywords’ inner relationship strong themes progression centrality quadrant tactics. This technique has not been rehashed previously within domain. We identify gaps related formulation, implementation, mechanisms propose avenues studies fill those gaps.
