Abstract This note focuses on a possible limitation of international publication data as a measure of research activity. It is argued that differences in the ‘pressure’ and/or ‘capacity’ to publish may exist between countries which would necessitate the standardization of publication data on a country basis. The argument is supported by statistical tests performed on data recently utilized to measure agricultural scientific research activity.
