Nanofertilizers and nanopesticides increase crop efficiency because
of a several-fold increase in the surface-to-volume ratio of
nano-forms of nutrients and their suitability to foliar
application. The potential agricultural benefits of these
nanomaterials, their modes of action, and the fate of nanomaterials
in the soil are all discussed. This book uses a
multidisciplinary approach and highlights the expertise of the
authors in the fields of materials science, nanotechnology,
nanobiosensors, and agricultural research. It describes the details
of nanoscale synthesis of materials for targeted delivery; in
vitro, in vivo, and field trials experimentation; how to use
digital technology for specific solutions including Big Data to
create predictive mathematical modelling; along with the core
knowledge of plant systems and their biosphere to improve crop
yields. Also, the book discusses future perspectives and challenges
of nanomaterials in agricultural applications. In summary, this
book discusses agricultural nanobiotechnology with its main
emphasis on understanding the interactions of nanoscale materials
of pesticides and fertilizers. It also covers their application to
improve the quality and increase crop yield with a minimum use of
the active ingredients attached to the nanocarriers.
