Soil moisture assessment on production land is gaining more attention as one of the critical factors and had a remarkable impact on agriculture production, life as well as global warming. Bibliometric analysis is performed by extracting datasets from SCOPUS from 2000 to 2020 to analyse soil moisture using remote sensing study and progress in the last two decades. The outcome indicates that study on the development of soil moisture monitoring tools using remote sensing has been increasing especially for international cooperation articles. International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS) recorded the most productive journal published articles in this field. Among the top active countries that produce most articles were the USA followed by China. The current keywords search on soil mechanism and satellite technology frequently searched in this field. Global issues that focus on the relationship between soil moisture and environmental forecast such as drought, climate change and global warming by using remote sensing technology needed more high impact research outputs in the future.
