Özet

Home gardens contribute significantly to food security, ecosystem stability, and human welfare. This research analyzes global developments in homegarden studies through systematic review and bibliometric approach. A total of 151 articles from Scopus were analyzed using the PRISMA and VOSviewer protocols to uncover publication trends, country and institutional distribution, author collaboration, and dominant keywords. The results indicated a sharp rise in publications after 2010, mainly from Indonesia, India, and Ethiopia, while high income nations such as Germany, the United States, and Spain focus more on urban ecology and biodiversity policy. The keyword analysis emphasized the dominance of the themes of biodiversity, ethnobotany, and food security, while the issues of climate resilience, management practices, and urban sustainability integration are still limited. The use of Home gardens is identified in five dimensions: food, health, ecology, economy, as well as socio-cultural and aesthetics. This study integrates SLR and bibliometrics offers an extensive overview of existing research trends and highlights emerging directions for climate change mitigation and sustainable urban development. Cross-regional collaboration, interdisciplinary approaches, and policy support are needed to maximize the contribution of Home gardens toward enhancing global food resilience and advancing sutainable growth initiatives.
