Quantum Computing for Sustainable Agriculture: A Review and Conceptual Framework
Yue Wu, Attila Balázs Nagy, Ács Szilvia +2 more
Global challenges of food security, population growth, climate change and resource scarcity require increasingly urgent solutions. The emergence of quantum computing opens new opportunities for future agriculture, especially within the framework of the agriculture 5.0 vision. The study demonstrates how quantum algorithms and quantum simulations can be applied in key areas such as energy transfer in photosynthesis, increasing the efficiency of gene editing, designing protein structures, optimizing fertilizer production, and adapting to climate change. Through these applications, quantum technology can not only complement classical approaches in agri-informatics, but also open new dimensions towards sustainable, data-driven and intelligent food production. The aim of the thesis is to establish a functional framework that systematically maps the opportunities and benefits of integrating quantum technology into agriculture.
