Article Synopsis
  • Food security is increasingly threatened by rising global populations and climate change, leading to concerns over the harmful effects of conventional agrochemicals on soil, health, and the environment.
  • Nanotechnology in agriculture offers a promising solution, utilizing nano-sized agrochemicals as nanofertilizers and nanopesticides to enhance crop productivity while using lower doses compared to traditional methods.
  • However, the continuous use of nanoparticles could negatively impact beneficial microorganisms that support plant health, so more research is needed to understand their effects and promote sustainable agricultural practices.

Agricultural nanotechnology has considerable promise for addressing global agricultural production/security, biodiversity, and global warming issues. Current trends in publications and patents demonstrate that biotechnology technologies, particularly for crops, are being developed to improve agricultural productivity and disease management. In the current issue, we strongly advocate for the use of biosynthesized nanoparticles from a variety of sources, including plants, agricultural waste, and microbes, as a prerequisite for significant and in-depth study.
