The impact of heavy metal presence in soil on cereal crops is a growing concern, posing significant challenges to global food security and environmental sustainability. Cereal crops, vital sources nutrition, face the risk contamination with toxic metals released into environment through human activities. This paper explores key aspects requiring thorough investigation foster innovation understand intricate interactions between cereals. Visible symptoms physiological changes resulting from contamination, such as chlorosis stunted growth, demand further research devise targeted mitigation strategies sustainable agricultural practices. Root barrier formation, mycorrhizal symbiosis, metal-binding proteins emerge critical defence mechanisms for combating stress, offering opportunities developing metal-tolerant varieties. Research bioavailability safety implications grains safeguard health. reveals that multidisciplinary collaboration cutting-edge technologies are essential promoting beyond state art elucidating mitigating impacts crops. Genetic breeding approaches show promise varieties, while agronomic practices amendments can reduce toxicity. Unravelling complex underlying uptake tolerance agriculture worldwide Embracing pollution proactive secure resilient future amid evolving conditions.

ABSTRACT By 2050, the global population is projected to reach 9 billion, underscoring imperative for innovative solutions increase grain yield and enhance food security. Nanotechnology has emerged as a powerful tool, providing unique this challenge. Nanoparticles (NPs) can improve plant growth nutrition under normal conditions through their high surface‐to‐volume ratio physical chemical properties. Moreover, they be used monitor crop health status augment resilience against abiotic stresses (such salinity, drought, heavy metals, extreme temperatures) that endanger agriculture. Application of NPs stress tolerance mechanisms in plants, minimizing potential losses raise quality. This review highlights need comprehensive exploration environmental implications safety nanomaterials provides valuable guidelines researchers, policymakers, agricultural practitioners. With thoughtful stewardship, nanotechnology holds immense promise shaping environmentally sustainable agriculture amid escalating challenges.

Abstract Traditional fertilizers are highly inefficient, with a major loss of nutrients and associated pollution. Alternatively, biochar loaded phosphorous is sustainable fertilizer that improves soil structure, stores carbon in soils, provides plant the long run, yet most biochars not optimal because mechanisms ruling properties poorly known. This issue can be solved by recent developments machine learning computational chemistry. Here we review phosphorus-loaded emphasis on chemistry, learning, organic acids, drawbacks classical fertilizers, production, phosphorus loading, release. Modeling techniques allow for deciphering influence individual variables biochar, employing various supervised models tailored to different types. Computational chemistry knowledge factors control binding, e.g., type compound, constituents, mineral surfaces, binding motifs, water, solution pH, redox potential. Phosphorus release from controlled coexisting anions, adsorbent dosage, initial concentration, temperature. Pyrolysis temperatures below 600 °C enhance functional group retention, while 450 increase plant-available phosphorus. Lower pH values promote release, higher hinder it. Physical modifications, such as increasing surface area pore volume, maximize adsorption capacity biochar. Furthermore, acid affects low molecular weight acids being advantageous utilization. Lastly, biochar-based 2–4 times slower than conventional fertilizers.

A combination of rapid population growth, climate change, and environmental degradation have placed immense pressure on global food sources increased security concerns especially in developing economies like those African countries. Notably, efforts to produce for the rising human continued burden arable lands across globe, necessitating heavy use chemical fertilizers increase crop yield. While widespread conventional has indeed enhanced productivity, its sustainability is threatened by soil resulting from compound accumulation several ecosystems. The invention nanotechnology, which synthesis manipulation materials at nanometer (1 100 nm) range, promises potential solutions these agricultural challenges. Specifically, theoretical, experimental research nanofertilizers highlighted significant their employment sustainable farming practices. current review examines benefits conferred delivery nutrients plants nanoscale, outlining progress, challenges, opportunities adopting this emerging technology countries, highlighting future perspectives areas possible collaborations globally.
