Declining or Waning

While Nusantara Bioscience continues to explore a wide array of themes, some topics have shown a decline in publication frequency, suggesting a potential waning interest or shifts in research focus.
  1. Traditional Medicine Studies:
    There has been a noticeable decrease in the number of papers focusing specifically on traditional medicine practices and ethnobotany, indicating a shift towards more empirical, experimental research rather than ethnographic studies.
  2. Invasive Species Research:
    Research on invasive species has become less prominent, possibly due to a saturation of studies or a shift towards addressing more pressing ecological issues.
  3. Agricultural Pests and Diseases:
    While still relevant, studies specifically targeting agricultural pests and diseases have seen a decline, suggesting that researchers may be focusing more on integrated pest management strategies rather than isolated studies.
