Abstract
Ecotourism, natural resource protection, and local livelihood are considered a kind of nature-based tourism that targets two key attributes: the enhancement of livelihoods and the protection of biodiversity. Bibliometric analysis is a quantitative review approach that employs statistics, data mining, and mathematics to identify new academic trends. To evaluate the evolution and extension of this body of knowledge and to forecast its future path, the present study analyzed Scopus-indexed research publications on ecotourism in agriculture from 2012 to 2022. To perform the bibliometric analysis, the VOSviewer software and Scopus analytics were used. VOSviewer has two separate visualization modes: network and overlay. A total of 274 journal articles (n = 181) and conference papers (n = 46) were extracted. The number of research documents published by 269 authors was steadily increasing annually. China is the leading country in the number of publications and research collaborations. In addition, monitoring the carrying capacity of ecotourism locations and giving vocational training to the untrained local people would increase the overall efficacy of the ecotourism industry. For a successful ecotourism company, it would be advantageous to get a thorough understanding of the ecotourist's role and the importance of eco-certification.
