This study presents a bibliometric analysis of lactation curve modeling in livestock based on 1455 articles
from the WOS database spanning 1980 to 2023. It highlights the prominent researcher Macicotta NPP with 26
publications and identifies the University of Cornell as the leading institution in terms of publication count. The
Journal of Dairy Science emerges as the most relevant journal in the field, with 393 papers. Among the
countries represented, Türkiye ranks 13th with 44 studies, primarily conducted in collaboration with other local
authors. These findings offer valuable insights for future research endeavors in the domain of lactation curves
and provide guidance on coauthor selection, journal selection, and relevant keywords. Therefore, it is
suggested in this study that the lactation curve studies should be supported with different mathematical
models in livestock.
