Metal-based nanoparticles (MNPs) are gaining attention as promising components of nanopesticides, offering innovative solutions to enhance agricultural pest management while addressing environmental concerns associated with traditional pesticides. MNPs, such silver, copper, zinc, nickel, gold, iron, aluminum, and titanium, exhibit unique nanoscale properties. These properties enable the formulation MNPs for controlled sustained release, thereby reducing application frequency minimizing runoff. This release mechanism not only improves efficacy but also reduces risks non-target organisms beneficial species, aligning principles sustainable crop protection. review examines nanopesticides based on their specific targets, nanoinsecticide, nanobactericide, nanofungicide, nanonematicide, nanoviricide. It explores mechanisms action metal-based nanoparticles, including physical disruption, chemical interactions, biological processes. Additionally, details how compromise cellular integrity through membrane damage, DNA mitochondrial impairment, protein denaturation. Despite these advantages, significant challenges remain, particularly concerning impact long-term effects soil health ecosystem dynamics, potential human safety. Addressing is crucial realizing full in agriculture.
