The increasing food demand as a result of the rising global population has prompted large-scale use fertilizers. As resource constraints and low efficiency fertilizers, cost to farmer is dramatically. Nanotechnology offers great potential tailor fertilizer production with desired chemical composition, improve nutrient that may reduce environmental impact, boost plant productivity. Furthermore, controlled release targeted delivery nanoscale active ingredients can realize sustainable precision agriculture. A review nanotechnology-based smart agriculture discussed in this paper. Scientific gaps be overcome fundamental questions answered for safe effective development deployment nanotechnology are addressed.

In the current scenario, it is an urgent requirement to satisfy nutritional demands of rapidly growing global population. Using conventional farming, nearly one third crops get damaged, mainly due pest infestation, microbial attacks, natural disasters, poor soil quality, and lesser nutrient availability. More innovative technologies are immediately required overcome these issues. this regard, nanotechnology has contributed agrotechnological revolution that imminent potential reform resilient agricultural system while promising food security. Therefore, nanoparticles becoming a new-age material transform modern practices. The variety nanoparticle-based formulations, including nano-sized pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, fertilizers, sensors, have been widely investigated for plant health management improvement. In-depth understanding nanomaterial interactions opens new avenues toward improving crop practices through increased properties such as disease resistance, yield, utilization. review, we highlight critical points address nanotechnology-based research could benefit productivity security in future.

Abstract Mineral phosphorus (P) fertilizers support high crop yields and contribute to feeding the teeming global population. However, complex edaphic processes cause P be immobilized in soil, hampering its timely sufficient availability for uptake by plants. The resultant low use efficiency of current water-soluble creates significant environmental human health problems. Current practices increase have been inadequate curtail these We advocate understanding plant physiological processes, such as requirement, storage excess phytate, mechanisms, identify novel ways designing delivering plants improved uptake. note importance implications contrasting role micronutrients zinc iron stimulating under soil content, while inhibiting fertilization; this could provide an avenue managing different fertilization regimes. argue that improvement nutritional value crops, especially cereals, through reduced phytic acid increased contents should among most important drivers toward development innovative fertilizer products technologies.

Interaction among plant nutrients can yield antagonistic or synergistic outcomes that influence nutrient use efficiency. To provide insight on this phenomenon, peer-reviewed articles were selected quantified the interaction effects of crop levels. In total 94 described 117 interactions between all macro- and micronutrients for different agricultural crops. 43 cases was synergistic, in 17 antagonistic, 35 zero-interaction; other 23 non-significant (16) showed a negative response (7). Generally: (a) when availability two is characterized as deficient, large increase be expected by diminishing these deficiencies: (b) most macronutrients mutual levels are synergistic; (c) often found divalent cations. Knowledge guide fertilizer design optimization fertilization strategies high yields efficiencies.

Mineral fertilizers are key to food production, despite plant low nutrient uptake efficiencies and high losses. However, nanotechnology can both enhance crop productivity reduce This has raised interest in nanoscale nanoenabled bulk fertilizers, hence the concept of nanofertilizers. Nevertheless, large-scale industrial production nanofertilizers is yet be realized. Here, we highlight science-based evidence outstanding concerns for motivating fertilizer industry nanofertilizers, including notion toxicity associated with materials; scant nanofertilizer research nutrients; inadequacy soil- or field-based studies nanofertilizers; type nanomaterials produce as fertilizers; how efficiently effectively apply at field scale; economics It anticipated that development validation nondisruptive existing systems will motivate industry's involvement

Nutrient deficiency in food crops is seriously affecting human health, especially those the rural areas, and nanotechnology may become most sustainable approach to alleviating this challenge. There are several ways of fortifying nutrients such as dietary diversification, use drugs industrial fortification. However, affordability sustainability these methods have not been completely achieved. Plants absorb from fertilizers, but conventional fertilizers low nutrient uptake efficiency. Nanofertilizers are, therefore, engineered be target oriented easily lost. This review surveys effects addition macro- nanonutrients soil, interaction, absorption capability plants, environmental effect content nutrients. Most reports were obtained recent works, they show that plants could enriched by applying nanoparticulate nutrients, which absorbed plant. Although there some toxicity issues associated with nanoparticles crop, biologically synthesized preferred for agricultural purposes. would circumvent concerns toxicity, being pollution free. report, offers more understanding on application biofortification plant future possibilities offered practice. It also highlights ills introduction nanomaterials into soil crop’s improvement.

There is a need for more innovative fertilizer approach that can increase the productivity of agricultural systems and be environmentally friendly than synthetic fertilizers. In this article, we reviewed recent development potential benefits derived from use nanofertilizers (NFs) in modern agriculture. NFs have to promote sustainable agriculture overall crop productivity, mainly by increasing nutrient efficiency (NUE) field greenhouse crops. release their nutrients at slow steady pace, either when applied alone or combination with organic They 40-50 days, while fertilizers do same 4-10 days. Moreover, tolerance plants against biotic abiotic stresses. Here, advantages over fertilizers, as well different types macro micro NFs, are discussed detail. Furthermore, application smart role mitigation stress on presented. Though NF applications may many agriculture, there some concerns related nanoparticles (NPs) into environment, subsequent detrimental effects could both human animal health. Future research should explore green synthesized biosynthesized safe use, bioavailability, toxicity concerns.
