In Brazil, some of the indices used to evaluate the diffusion of science are: the Qualis index, the normalized h index, g index and h index, in addition to the impact factor and its proprietary version the JCR. This article aims to evaluate the impact and quality of journals in the area of Agrarian Sciences I of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), from 2010 to 2016. This evaluation was based on several biases, that for some, all 3975 magazines could be analyzed (census) and for others, a sample of 748 magazines. Qualis, citations per article, number of articles published, number of authors per article, g index, h index, individual normalized h index (hinorm), number of citations, number of articles, impact factor (FI) and JCR (Journal Citation Reports) were evaluated. Qualis data were obtained from Capes Sucupira platform, while the other variables were collected using Harzing’s Publish or Perish software. Statistical treatment and data tabulation were performed using R statistical software and Excel software, respectively. The results indicate that there is a positive correlation between all the above mentioned impact metrics and a low Qualis correlation with the other evaluation metrics of scientific production.
