Keywords: circular economy, sustainable development, agricultural sector, bibliometric analysis, European Green Deal

Abstract

The article is devoted to the theoretical analysis of trends, the current state of publishing activity and priority areas of research in the circular economy in the world in the context of sustainable development of the agricultural sector in Ukraine. The analysis of publishing activity on the circular economy according to the Scopus database allowed us to draw the following conclusions: 1) In the world, a tendency towards a significant increase in the intensity of research on the circular economy has been identified, especially since 2016; 2) The world leaders in terms of the number of publications on the circular economy are Italy (14,2 %), China (13,2 %), United Kingdom (10,6 %), Spain (9,4 %) and Germany (6,3 %); 3) In Ukraine, these issues are at an early stage, while over the past five years, a tendency towards an increase in publication activity has been revealed by 7.7 times; 4) Circular economics is an interdisciplinary research object, with most of the work published in the field of environmental sciences (22,7 %), engineering (14,6 %), energy (12,5 %), business, management, accounting (7,8 %) and social sciences (7,7 %); 4) According to the number of publications on the circular economy, the most influential organization in the world is Delft University of Technology, the most influential scientist – Chinese Professor Y. Geng; 5) In the world insufficient attention is paid to the circular agricultural economy; most of the work of Ukrainian scholars focuses on the relationship between the circular economy and waste management and the European integration, none of which relate to the agricultural sector. Taking into account the assessment of the current state of scientific support of the circular economy and the need to implement the European Green Deal, a promising area of research is the substantiation of a strategy for the development of a circular digital agricultural economy, which will contribute to the sustainable development of Ukraine's agricultural sector in the context of European integration.
