Alfalfa silage is widely used in the ration of animals. The aim of this study was to determine the publication trends and trending topics of studies on alfalfa silage utilisation and alfalfa fermentation (CAU) in cattle based on the data obtained from the Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection database. The Biblioshiny package, VOSviewer viewing programme and Excel 2022 were used for analysis. A total of 399 documents related to the researched topic were retrieved from WoS from 1980 to 2024. 1203 authors were included in the study. The average citation rate per article is 38.36. The number of articles with a single author is 16. Most of the publications on CAU were found in English language. It was found that the journal that published the most articles was Journal of Dairy Science (198), the most prolific author was GA. Broderick (27), the most cited author was GA. Broderick (2254), the most cited document author was MS. Allen (1073), the most frequently used keyword was “dairy cow”, and the most cited country was USA (459). When the results of the trend topic analysis are analysed, it can be said that the topics on increasing silage quality and nutrient content have come to the forefront in recent researches. This study can provide detailed information about the situation in the current literature in the field of CAU.
