Information and communication technologies (ICT), social media, agricultural extension, information dissemination

The study explores the role of information and communication technologies (ICT) and social media on agricultural extension. Through digital tools, these innovations have greatly improved information dissemination and knowledge exchange among farmers and agricultural households. The study presents an extensive bibliometric analysis based on 166 articles from Scopus, from 2000 to 2023. Bibliometric tools like VOSviewer and R-Biblioshiny are used to answer five major research questions, mainly identifying influential authors, leading journals, key organizations, seven thematic clusters, etc. The findings indicate increased publications after 2017, reflecting a growing interest in this field. Significant contributions come from the United States, India, and China, indicating the global relevance of digital innovations in agricultural extension. This study expands beyond previous research by covering a broader array of countries, themes, and a more extensive timeframe. The study concludes by detailing six identified themes(Digital agricultural extension, adoption of ICT in agricultural extension, Impact of ICT in agricultural extension, barriers to adoption of ICT in agricultural extension, use of social media in agricultural extension, and digital agricultural extension in developing regions) providing information into each theme's main topics, relevant articles, authors, publication years, sources, total citations, and total link citations, that gives a comprehensive overview of this research area.
