This note reports a ranking for agricultural economics journals, based on citation data for the years 1986 and 1991. The rankings are generated using data envelopment techniques, and form part of a wider evaluation of economics journals. The results indicate that the American Journal of Agricultural Economics and Journal of Agricultural Economics and Land Economics are consistently ranked highly, irrespective of time period or citation measure used. They also indicate that the performance of the agricultural economics journals considered is broadly comparable with other applied economics journals.
