Abstract
This study analyses three decades of Millet Production research in India (1989-2023) with a Scientometrics approach, visualizing trends and patterns in scholarly output. India is the worlds largest producer of millet, with significant regional variations in millet cultivation. Major contributing states include Rajasthan, Karnataka, Maharashtra, and Madhya Pradesh. Scientometrics analysis, carried out on the Web of Science database using VOSviewer software, produced 600 publications with 12,028 citations. Development of millet research was found to be consistent with specific growth beginning after 2012, peaking during the International Year of Millets, 2023. Visualization of collaborative networks indicated the core institutions to be ICRISAT and ICAR. Prominent authors including Kumar A and Kumar S, and journals such as the Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences are also featured in the Table. Keyword analysis showed that the research focus was on pearl millet, which primarily connects to agricultureand nourishment. Co-authorship and co-citation analyses underscore a robust collaborative environment in terms of research spanning several disciplines, concerning agronomy, biotechnology, and sustainable agriculture. This research focuses on the millet production research arena concerning food security, sustainable agricultural practices, and environmental challenges.
