The journal covers a variety of subjects, including Agronomy, Botany, Soil water, Horticulture and Cultivar. The journal links adjacent topics like Agronomy with Nitrogen. Botany research is concerned with Shoot in particular.
The study of Soil science serves as the foundation of the Soil water research discussed in it. It focuses on Soil organic matter as well as the interrelated topic of Soil carbon.
The journal papers cover a variety of subjects, including Agronomy, Soil water, Botany, Nitrogen and Soil science. While the primary focus in the most cited articles is Agronomy, they also dissect topics surrounding Soil fertility and Soil organic matter as a whole. While work presented in the most cited papers provide substantial information on Soil water, it also covers topics in Environmental chemistry and Organic matter.
Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica Section B-soil and Plant Science investigates areas of study like Agronomy, Agriculture, Crop, Industrial organization and Horticulture. The studies on Agronomy discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Soil water and Nitrogen. The journal focuses on Agriculture but the discussions also offer insight into other areas such as Sustainable development, Order (business), Circular economy and Big data.
Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica Section B-soil and Plant Science explores research in Crop alongside concepts in Agricultural engineering and other areas of study in Yield (finance). While Industrial organization is the focus of it, it also provided insights into the studies of Mechanism (sociology), Supply chain, Value chain and Index system. It addresses concerns in Horticulture which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Meloidogyne incognita and Vermicompost.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica Section B-soil and Plant Science (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica Section B-soil and Plant Science (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 16.49% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 20.99% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 3.70% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 14.81% of all publications and 60.49% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2021)For students interested in Plant Science and Agronomy, exploring related fields like nutrition and healthcare can open up diverse career pathways. Many online programs offer flexible options to advance your education while balancing other commitments. For example, pursuing an online nutrition degree allows you to deepen your understanding of plant-based nutrition and its impact on human health, complementing your agronomy studies.
If you want to complete your studies quickly, consider a nutritionist bachelor degree online, designed for accelerated learning. This pathway is ideal for entering the workforce sooner with practical knowledge in dietetics and food science.
Beyond nutrition, healthcare careers such as nursing also relate to plant science in areas like medicinal plants and holistic health. Programs like online accelerated nursing programs for non nurses offer a fast track for those shifting into nursing without prior experience.
For advanced practice roles, understanding how to become a nurse practitioner can help you plan long-term career development. Combining knowledge from agronomy, nutrition, and healthcare can lead to innovative roles impacting food systems and patient wellness.
