本論文は、農業食品廃棄物と土壌健康（AFW-SH）に関する循環経済（CE）研究の文献計量分析を行い、研究の時系列、協力ネットワーク、概念構造、テーマの進化を明らかにした。190件の論文を分析し、資源効率と規制枠組みが主要テーマであること、バイオ炭とCEが頻出キーワードであることを示した。SDGsでは飢餓ゼロと気候行動が多く議論され、土壌健康をCEの中心に据えることで、今後の研究と政策のロードマップを提供している。
English
This paper presents a bibliometric analysis of circular economy (CE) research on agri-food waste and soil health (AFW-SH), revealing research chronology, collaboration networks, conceptual structure, and thematic evolution. Analyzing 190 articles, it identifies resource efficiency and regulatory frameworks as key themes, with biochar and CE as frequent keywords. SDGs #2 (zero hunger) and #13 (climate action) are most discussed, positioning soil health as central to CE and providing a roadmap for future research and policy.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本の農業政策や食品ロス削減、土壌炭素貯留への関心と関連するが、直接的なGX規制や開示要件には結びつかない。日本の読者には、循環経済と土壌健康の研究動向を俯瞰する参考情報として有用。
In the global GX context
This study contributes to global circular economy scholarship by mapping research trends at the agri-food waste-soil health nexus, relevant to climate action and sustainable agriculture. It offers a systematic overview that can inform international policy frameworks and research agendas, though it does not directly address corporate disclosure or transition finance.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Provides a comprehensive map of research hotspots and gaps in agri-food waste-to-soil health within circular economy, useful for identifying future research directions.
🏢実務担当者:Offers insights into circular economy practices in agri-food chains, potentially guiding sustainable sourcing and waste management strategies.
🏛政策担当者:Highlights policy-relevant themes such as regulatory frameworks and SDG alignment, supporting the design of circular economy policies in agriculture.
📄 Abstract（原文）
The circular economy (CE) addresses critical global issues, including environmental degradation, food insecurity, and climate change, in line with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Despite their relevance, CE applications in agri-food waste systems have not been comprehensively understood in global research on soil health, due to a lack of systematic analyses linking soil security with agri-food waste. By using a mixed-method strategy, including bibliometric mapping, text mining, and content analysis, we unveil global research chronology, collaboration networks, conceptual structure, and thematic evolution in agri-food waste-to-soil health (AFW-SH) improvement within the context of CE practices. Data was retrieved from Scopus and Web of Science. 190 articles were selected for the analysis using VOSViewer, Flourish Studio, Bibliometrix, and Biblioshiny in R. The results revealed that 759 authors contributed to the growth of publications, and over 60% of the papers were recorded in recent years. China, the USA, and India had the highest publications and collaborations. For the CE thematic areas, resource efficiency (53.68%) and regulatory frameworks (49.47%) had the highest publications. Biochar (17.5%) and CE (7.8%) were the most occurring keywords. Zero hunger—SDG #2 (21%) and climate action—SDG #13 (17%) were the most discussed SDGs. By positioning soil health as a core component of CE performance in the agri-food chain, the study highlights crucial knowledge gaps and identifies new research frontiers in which AFW-SH strategies promote fertility, carbon sequestration, ecosystem resilience, and sustainable agricultural productivity. This provides a clear scientific roadmap for future research, innovation, and policy development for agri-food systems and food security.
