Abstract: This study investigates the interconnections between subjective well-being (SWB), climate change and agriculture through a bibliometric analysis of 3107 publications from 1998 to 2024. The research reveals a growing body of literature on this topic, yet a significant research gap exists in exploring the intricate relationships between these domains, for which thematic analysis was conducted. The study uncovers a complex relationship between climate change, environmental impacts, agricultural practices, and subjective well-being by mapping the intellectual structure and identifying key trends. Bibliometric analysis uncovered influential sources (Sustainability), writers (Whitmee with co-authors) and nations (China) that made substantial contributions to the subject. A proposed relational framework highlights the multifaceted effects of climate change on SWB, mediated by factors such as health, stress, technology, soil health and water availability. The findings emphasise the need for integrated approaches involving education, policy and mitigation strategies as moderating variables to address the challenges posed by climate change and enhance agricultural sustainability and human well-being.
