    The solvothermal reaction of magnesium nitrate with bi­phenyl-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid in N,N-dimethyl­formamide and water leads to the formation of crystals of the title complex, [Mg(C14H8O4)(H2O)2]n. In the crystal structure, the Mg cations are coordinated by six O atoms from two water mol­ecules and four symmetry-related biphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxyl­ate anions within slightly distorted octa­hedra. The Mg cations are located on a center of inversion, the biphenyl-4,4′-dicarboxyl­ate anions around a twofold rotation axis and the water mol­ecule in a general position. The Mg cations are linked by the anions into a three-dimensional framework

    The title complex, [Mg3(CHO2)3(C9H3O6)(C3H7NO)3]n, exhib­its a two-dimensional structure parallel to (001), which is built up from the MgII atoms and bridging carboxyl­ate ligands (3 symmetry). The MgII atom is six-coordinated by one O atom from a dimethyl­formamide mol­ecule, two O atoms from two μ6-benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxyl­ate ligands and three O atoms from three μ3-formate ligands in a distorted octa­hedral geometry

    The Effects of Green Energy Production on Farmland: A Case Study in Yunlin County, Taiwan

    Taiwan enacted the Act of Renewable Energy in the year 2009 which promotes energy safety, green economy, and a sustainable environment, and with that the government envisages a contribution of photovoltaic energy of up to 20% by the year 2025. In this study we look into the motivation and background of this energy policy, plans for implementation and associated challenges, and its actual consequences for farmland use and farmers. In addition, we take a look into the implementation of mixed-use farmland in which agricultural activity and photovoltaic installations are planned to coexist in order to increase land value and productivity. We furthermore report on some of our findings related to a field survey conducted in Taiwan’s corn chamber of Yunlin County which has been facing a number of socioeconomic challenges
