Quantitative analysis and network visualisation has been conducted to highlight the core research constituents like authors, countries, journals, institutions, etc. RStudio and VOSviewer applications have been used for data analysis and visualisation. The scientific interests and most active and cited authors in the field have been identified along with their relationships. Most relevant publications and the most occurring keywords in the research field have also been highlighted. This approach helps in unpacking the evolutionary nuances of the agricultural waste management, identifying the emerging trends and areas and developing reference for future research.
