This new volume explores the important and cutting-edge roles that
nanotechnology can play in facilitating sustainable agriculture. It
provides recent updates on nanobiotechnology in soil science, plant
breeding, food science, agricultural tool design and utilization,
as well as the impacts of such approaches on properties of soils
and plants and other environmental factors. The volume looks at the
many roles of nanotechnology as a state-of-the art tool in
sustainable agriculture, such as for crop production and
protection, in the creation and application of nano-pesticides, to
enhance soil fertility and soil health for improved plant growth,
as plant protective agents against pathogenic microbes and pests,
as a mitigating factor of plant abiotic stress, and more. It also
discusses the behavior of nanomaterials in soil and interaction
with soil biota. The volume goes on to explore emerging
nanotechnological tools and techniques for crop improvement, which
include space-inspired speed breeding for crop improvement,
nanoparticles as sensing materials, plant nanobionics, nanopore DNA
sequencing, and more. Nanotechnology for Sustainable Agriculture:
An Innovative and Eco-Friendly Approach will be an important
resource on sustainable agriculture and crop improvement with the
help of the recent and emerging tools of nanotechnology.
