Nanotechnology has emerged as a promising strategy for enhancing crop resilience to extreme weather events induced by climate change, such drought. However, the potential of nanomaterials (NMs) mitigate drought-induced stress remains insufficiently understood. Here, we conducted meta-analysis quantify effects NMs on growth and yield under Our findings reveal that significantly improved drought, with more pronounced positive impact C3 than C4 crops. Furthermore, seed application exhibits significant in protecting crops root or foliar applications. Specifically, increased relative water content use efficiency 10.8 33.3%, respectively. The enhance drought resistance was associated improving photosynthetic process, increasing osmolyte accumulation, nutrient uptake, alleviating oxidative damage. This analysis raises nanotechnology tool sustainable nano-enabled agriculture changing climate.
