Abstract

Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising materials for addressing modern agricultural challenges due to their exceptional porosity, high surface area, and chemical versatility. These crystalline frameworks enable the controlled release of agrochemicals, such as fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides, improving resource efficiency and reducing environmental contamination. MOFs also exhibit multifunctionality, including water retention, pollutant remediation, and soil monitoring, offering solutions to issues like nutrient leaching, water scarcity, and pest resistance. ni Moreover, MOFs have been used as platform for biomolecules immobilization in the development of biosensors applied to agricultural area. Despite their transformative potential, challenges related to cost, scalability, and regulatory frameworks remain significant barriers to widespread adoption. This review explores the properties, applications, and limitations of MOFs in agriculture, emphasizing their role in advancing sustainable farming practices and highlighting perspectives for their integration into precision agriculture.

金属有机框架：现代农业可能解决方案的概述

金属有机框架（mof）因其优异的孔隙率、高表面积和化学通用性而成为解决现代农业挑战的有前途的材料。这些结晶框架能够控制化肥、杀虫剂和除草剂等农用化学品的释放，提高资源效率并减少环境污染。mof还具有多种功能，包括保水、污染物修复和土壤监测，为养分淋失、水资源短缺和害虫抗性等问题提供了解决方案。此外，mof还可作为生物分子固定化的平台，应用于农业领域的生物传感器的开发。尽管它们具有变革潜力，但与成本、可扩展性和监管框架相关的挑战仍然是广泛采用的重大障碍。本文探讨了MOFs在农业中的特性、应用和局限性，强调了它们在促进可持续农业实践中的作用，并强调了它们与精准农业结合的前景。

期刊介绍： Microporous and Mesoporous Materials covers novel and significant aspects of porous solids classified as either microporous (pore size up to 2 nm) or mesoporous (pore size 2 to 50 nm). The porosity should have a specific impact on the material properties or application. Typical examples are zeolites and zeolite-like materials, pillared materials, clathrasils and clathrates, carbon molecular sieves, ordered mesoporous materials, organic/inorganic porous hybrid materials, or porous metal oxides. Both natural and synthetic porous materials are within the scope of the journal. Topics which are particularly of interest include: All aspects of natural microporous and mesoporous solids The synthesis of crystalline or amorphous porous materials The physico-chemical characterization of microporous and mesoporous solids, especially spectroscopic and microscopic The modification of microporous and mesoporous solids, for example by ion exchange or solid-state reactions All topics related to diffusion of mobile species in the pores of microporous and mesoporous materials Adsorption (and other separation techniques) using microporous or mesoporous adsorbents Catalysis by microporous and mesoporous materials Host/guest interactions Theoretical chemistry and modelling of host/guest interactions All topics related to the application of microporous and mesoporous materials in industrial catalysis, separation technology, environmental protection, electrochemistry, membranes, sensors, optical devices, etc.
