Abstract Nanotechnology holds excessive potential for addressing agricultural challenges such as soil deprivation, nutrient deficiencies, low harvests, and leaching. Nanofertilizers enable more efficient absorption by plants due to their enlarged surface area, bestowing viable solutions. Urea–hydroxyapatite hybrid (urea–HA hybrid) was successfully synthesized via a coprecipitation approach doping nanohydroxyapatite with copper zinc along urea. The nanohybrids were analyzed applying various techniques Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). evidence the crystalline structure of HA confirmed peaks present in XRD analysis at 25.89°, 28.77°, 32.11°, while urea validated 39.29°. nanosized hexagonal nanorods approximately 16 ± 1.5 nm, incorporation urea, Cu, Zn. components urea–HA (Ca, P, C, O, N) EDS traces Si. Antibacterial antifungal activities investigated against phytopathogenic microbes. nanohybrid significantly inhibits growth Clavibacter michiganensis , Xanthomonas campestris Macrophomina phaseolina Sclerotium rolfsii . A fertilization trial using on Citrus limon has demonstrated 30 cm within 8 weeks treatment, accompanied brighter-colored leaves. Thus, enabled slow release nutrients, which had significant impact plant will also effectively manage disease control phytopathogens. this innovative addresses regarding delivery effectively.

Based on the BERTopic model, this study analyzes 15,744 scientific papers in field of functional agriculture from 1995 to 2024 uncover core themes and evolutionary trends global agriculture, particularly focuses revealing developmental trajectory China. The results indicate that research is characterized by diverse intensive study, forming a multi-topic cross-network centered plant chemical extraction agricultural soil research, with focus food nutrition, human health, environmental protection. By contrast, China’s demonstrates more focused in-depth approach, concentrating development protection themes, notable growth areas such as selenium-enriched products resistant starch. Combined environment, makes following suggestions for China: (1) Promoting interdisciplinary cooperation between other technologies. (2) Developing Chinese characteristics product brands. (3) Utilizing smart farming technology boost agriculture.
