Abstract: The paper aims to investigate the researchers, study fields, research departments and research levels of urban agriculture by statistic analysis, and clarify the hotspots of urban agriculture research from 1989 to 2014. In this study, we retrieved CNKI database by bibliometric method and found more than 40 study fields of urban agriculture in recent 25 years. There were 2502 papers which were published on 40 kinds of journals and 2082 papers belonged to social science. The researchers on this subject mainly came from universities, institutes, and government and functional departments. From this study, we would like to get a comprehensive understanding of China’s urban agriculture research and to provide references for further study on urban agriculture.
