This research has been carried out in the field of scientometrics and its main purpose is to identify the scientific production of Iranian researchers in three thematic areas of weeds plant pests and plant diseases, until 2017 in Scopus database. Quantitative indicators have been used to conduct this research. The statistical population of the study is 5002 scientific works produced by Iranian researchers. To conduct the research, first the specifications of the scientific works related to these three subject areas were extracted and refined, and then the obtained results were analyzed. On average, the annual production of scientific works by researchers is 87.7. More than 84.3% of scientific papers have been prepared in groups and only 15.7% of articles have been written by one author. About 65% of articles are written by two or three authors. The results of the research show that the growth of articles is increasing.

The main purpose of this article is to study and analyze the status of Iranian researchers' scientific production of plant pests from the beginning to the end of 2017.Research

This is a scientometrics research method. The statistical population of this study consists of 744 titles of scientific works produced by Iranian researchers extracted from Scopus database.

A total of 744 scientific works were produced by 159 Iranian researchers, the most of which (106) were produced in 2017.The research paper with a total of 682 titles are the type of works and the subject area of agriculture (550 works) covers the most. Tehran University with 150 works, Islamic Azad University with 67 works and Tarbiat Modarres University with 64 works were the most collaborated. Researchers in the United States (23), England (14) and Canada (13 articles) had the most collaboration. About 93% of the scientific works were co-authored and 7% were single authored. The 3 authors with 189 works and the 4 authors with 188 works constitute the most produced works.

The results show that the scientific output of Iranian researchers has a relatively growing trend. Interaction of Iranian researchers with their domestic counterparts and external researchers has been acceptable. Out of 744 works, 93% have been produced collaboratively and co-authored, and 27% of them have been collaborated with foreign production researchers.

The study of the thematic trends of articles published in Persian in the field of plant pests and categorizes them based on specified fields to determine their issue and evaluate them based on the priorities and requirements.

This research is a qualitative research based on content analysis and a descriptive-analytical approach has been used to describe and evaluate the content of the target community's articles. The research population consisted of all articles (2028 articles) published in seven prestigious scientific journals from 2008 to 2017. The articles were categorized and coded according to the subjects (6 subjects) and features of the authors (the first or the rest authors). Then, the obtained data were sorted and analyzed by means of software Excel, and tables and charts were prepared

From the point of view of number abundance, the articles with the laboratory subject were ranked first, the molecular subject the last (sixth) and the applied field the fifth. About 30% of the first authors were from the Research, Training and Promotion Organization of the Agriculture and 70% from universities.

The topic selection and design of the research were more based on the article preparation.
