This study focuses on detecting trends and topics in social science research on organic agriculture. We applied scientometric methods, such as keyword co-occurrence analysis and burst detection to keywords assigned to scientific literature related to the social sciences from 2002 to 2021. As a result, various research topics on organic agriculture from production to consumption aspects were detected. Furthermore, recent trends in social science research were detected quantitatively. These trends included meta-analysis through case study accumulation and research topics related to organic agriculture and sustainability.
