Abstract:	The global agricultural drone market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 35.9% to $5.7 billion by 2025. Along with other orchestrated efforts, farming practices like drone-mediated farming can significantly impact agricultural output, contributing toward achieving the zero hunger sustainable development goal. They improve farmers productivity, save time and resources, and offer precision agriculture through IoT, AI, sensors, surveillance, spraying capabilities, lower prices, and government support. This research aims to provide a comprehensive and retrospective approach to understanding the vast body of knowledge on drone-mediated agriculture. A bibliometric investigation using VOSviewer and Biblioshiny was conducted to analyse domain development, hot topics, and research trends and to identify future research agendas through thematic mapping and content analysis.
