Bibliometría, diversificación de cultivos, sostenibilidad agrícola, vainilla de calidad

Resumen

Vanilla planifolia es una orquídea de hábito trepador y principal fuente natural de vainillina, utilizada en diversas industrias. La bibliometría permite analizar la evolución y las brechas en la investigación. El análisis se realizó utilizando los términos "vanilla" y "sustainable" en publicaciones entre 2002 y 2025. Se utilizó Scopus y VOSviewer para construir gráficos estadísticos y mapas de concurrencia. Se estipulo un umbral de tres documentos por país y tres repeticiones por término. La literatura científica ha tenido un crecimiento notable en 2023. A nivel global, 29 países han contribuido, destacando Estados Unidos e India. A pesar de la importancia de la vainilla en Latinoamérica, la producción científica es limitada. Términos como diversificación de cultivos y aprendizaje colaborativo han ganado relevancia, lo que sugiere un enfoque en la sostenibilidad agrícola. Es indispensable fomentar entre las naciones la implementación de sistemas agrícolas sostenibles que garanticen una producción de vainilla de calidad
