AB Agricultural economics research is an international endeavour
   that benefits from the free exchange of knowledge. Using data
   from the Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) we compare for
   the period 1987-1997 the published contributions by
   agricultural economics professors from universities in Germany,
   the Netherlands, the UK and the US, and we measure citations.
   There are considerable differences in the contributions pet
   capita to the international journal literature and in citations
   received. Germany has contributed much less per capita than the
   other countries and its agricultural economists have received
   fewer citations. The percentage distributions for articles and
   citations are remarkably similar across countries.
