Abstract
Recently, coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) has posed a threat to global food security. Assessing recent literature on food security in the presence of Covid-19 is important for policymakers and funding sponsors to make future decisions. While research on the health impacts of Covid-19 is rapidly emerging, there is limited evidence on the food security impacts of the pandemic, especially in the form of scientometric study. The current study aims to give an overview on the impact of Covid-19 in the context of global food security. A scientometric methodology was implemented using the Web of Science Core Collection database for the period from January 2019 to April 2021. The search strategy utilized the topic search related to Covid-19 and food security with certain constraints. Based on articles retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database, we found that the search query retrieved 734 documents within the research area of Covid-19 and food security.
