The paper presents patent and publication landscape methods to identify Russian centers of competence in irrigation technologies and in developing new generation of irrigation control systems based on intelligent algorithms and digital technologies. We collected a dataset of 2.2K full-text documents (patents, research papers, Ph.D. theses) for the period 2007–2021. The obtained scientific and patent landscape of irrigation technologies makes it possible to determine the necessary measures of state support to define the development direction for new generation of irrigation systems, considering global technological trends and ensuring efficient agricultural production.
