This study was conducted to determine (1) the growth of the number of scientific publications in the field of soil chemical farming systems, (2) the productivity of researchers, (3) the number of publications by field/subject, and (4) a map of the development of publications based on keywords. This research used descriptive quantitative methods with bibliometric analysis. Data collection was carried out by searching through the Google Scholar database with the keywords "farming system soil chemical" with the categories "authors, publication name, article title, keywords in the period 2017–2021 using Publish or Perish 8 software. In addition, VOSviewer software was used to analyze the development maps' publications. The study results show that the growth of scientific publications in the field of soil chemical farming systems shows a decline, and the highest decline occurred in 2021, namely as many as 21 documents (2.1%). In conclusion, the most publications published in 2017 were 420 publications (40.8%). The subjects with the most studies were soil, system, chemical, production, studies, farmers, and agriculture. The connections between topics are grouped into ten clusters, as seen through network visualization. This research is expected to assist researchers in determining the theme to be studied and can also be a reference for research on soil chemistry.
