Abstract: Abstract: The cited situation of articles in a journal by the journals covered in SCI (Science Citation Index) database is an important symbol of the influence and internationalized level. Based on the index and statistics of SCI database, Author analyzed the data of all the articles cited by the journals covered in SCI, which were from Transactions of the Chinese Society of Agricultural Engineering (Transactions of the CSAE) since founded. The results indicate that from 1985 to 2015, a total number of 3 150 articles are cited and the accumulative citation frequency is 6 871; There are 27 articles of Transactions of the CSAE with top 5 accumulative citation frequency by SCI database in recent 5 years, and the categories of these articles are agricultural information, soil and water engineering, agricultural bioenvironmental and energy engineering, land consolidation and rehabilitation engineering, and agricultural aviation ; There are 10 articles of Transactions of the CSAE with top 5 accumulative citation frequency by SCI database in 30 years, and 5 of them are related to straw resources, the top one citation frequency is 52. 6 045 authors from 86 countries have cited the articles of Transactions of the CSAE and the Chinese Academy of Sciences ranks the first for producing the SCI-cited articles; agriculture and environmental sciences ecology are leading subjects of the articles; and these SCI-cited articles are mainly funded by the National Nature Science Foundation of China. The analysis suggests that the number of SCI-cited articles of Transactions of the CSAE has significantly increased and achieved a high scale. The journals which cite articles of Transactions of the CSAE rank the middle level in the world. In future, Transactions of the CSCE should accept more basic research articles related to energy, environment and ecology, and more articles related to emerging and hot research areas such as agricultural information，land consolidation and rehabilitation engineering and agricultural aviation, and improve the internationalized level to attract more oversea researchers attention.
