Contaminants Removal and Monitoring: The Role of Hybrid MOFs in Agricultural Advancement and Soil Amendment

Abstract The interest in improving soil quality through innovative methods continues to grow in sustainable agriculture. Despite the emergence of new techniques, there has been limited research on methods based on metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs). This review first addresses the current issues in the soil and agriculture industry and discusses recent approaches for improving soil quality. It then explores the latest advancements in MOF‐based methods, which hold the potential to enhance soil quality and increase crop yields significantly. The unique properties and physicochemical mechanisms behind MOFs' applications and analytical performance are presented, highlighting their potential for more efficient and cost‐effective soil enhancement solutions. The review reveals that these new MOF approaches show promise in enhancing soil quality through processes such as adsorption, extraction, analyte monitoring, fertilization, soil washing, and moisture sensing. This review can lead to a future with higher soil quality, ensuring better food production and a more sustainable agricultural industry.
