Abstract In order to find hot topics in field of agricultural Internet of Things ( IOT), bibliometric analy- sis was carried out in the field of Agriculture Internet of Things based data of papers, including journal papers, thesis and conference papers, published from 2010 -2016 by way of Citespace, which is a bib- liometric analysis software using knowledge graph. The results showed that total 997 papers were ac- quired, and that the quantity of papers in agricultural IOT increased year by year, especially from 2012 to 2014, while, classic papers were few based on the half-life period analysis. Two core research groups were found, represented by National Engineering Research Center for Information Technology in Agricul- ture and College of Information and Electrical Engineering of China Agricultural University, College of In- formation Technology of Hunan Agricultural University. The keywords mainly had included IOT, Agricul- tural IOT, Agriculture, Smart Agriculture, Agricultural Modernization, Information Technology, Agricul- tural Informationization. While for technology, mainly focusing on Wireless Sensor Network, Zigbee, sensor and monitoring system, which mainly had used in fields of aquaculture, facilities agriculture, andso on. Because research on agricultural IOT was in the beginning period, the key points changed from 2010 to 2016 and no obvious hot points were found. It was suggested sors with low cost, low power consumption, high reliability, and data teristics of agricultural information. to pay attention on small-size sen- mining and the time-spatial charac-
