Bioinputs in Soil health indicators in Sugarcane: a bibliometric analysis from 1990 to 2025

Bioinputs are biological or non-biologicals products, as microorganisms, fungi and bacterias, algaes, among others. Our study aimed analyze which products has been used during the time, the behavior of the publications and where is the gap in this science theme. For this, we searched in Scopus and WoS, scientific papers with these specific key-words related to bioinputs in sugarcane and manually split all papers totaling 129 papers in global level. Since 1991 papers are published with bioinputs in sugarcane theme, but from 2010 the studies of different sources were published, but the real increase source diversity, as we see nowadays, occurred in 2014, coinciding with some sustainable agriculture incentive policies projects in some countries as India and China, been microorganisms or non-microorganisms origin, meeting with molecular analyses, in an improvement curve since then. Some microorganisms’ classes or orders are more used in main studies, but Fungi, and other sources are scarcer. Yield, roots, biological, chemical, physical, carbon, and soil class compound the most of the evaluations. Correlation between bioinputs and soil physical is consolidated. Although, most of studies about bioinputs in sugarcane barely cover these evaluations. On the other hand, includes yield, and biological analyses as studies’ core, and less than 50% of the studied papers include more than 1 area analysis. However, the most complete scene, could be covering all the areas analysis, in a set complementary of chemical, physical, biological and carbon analyses that are influenced by bioinputs.
