Traditionally announced in June, the Scopus CiteScore is a dynamic academic metric that reflects the citation rate of the content published in a particular journal over a past period. A Scopus CiteScore is estimated for each journal indexed in Scopus, the largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature. The CiteScore is derived by dividing the number of citations received over the past four full calendar years by the number of peer-reviewed publications published in that same timeframe. 

The Scopus CiteScore 2025 reflects data from 2022 to 2025. Scopus also maintains the CiteScoreTracker, which offers a monthly update incorporating citation data from the ongoing year. For Emirates Journal of Food and Agriculture, the current CiteScoreTracker draws on content published from 2023 through the latest complete month of 2026, offering a more immediate view of the journal's citation dynamics.

Meanwhile, the 2025 Journal Impact Factor, a key metric released by Clarivate, reflects the number of times content published in a specific journal during 2023 and 2024 was cited in 2025, divided by the number of citable articles (i.e., research and review articles).
