Abstract
Over the two recent decades, ionic liquids have become a focus of intensive research in the field of green chemistry. One of the recently developed application areas for ionic liquids is their use in agrochemistry as regulators and stimulators of plant growth, promoting an increase in crop yields and improvement of crop. In this review, research results in the area of using ionic liquids as herbicides, fungicides, antimicrobial agents, detergents, plant immunity inducers enhancing resistivity against phytopathogens, and plant growth stimulators. The advantages and disadvantages of ionic liquids in comparison with commercial products are described. The achievements and outlooks for the application of ionic liquids in agriculture are described, along with the possibilities to use them as multifunctional biologically active substances.
