NANOTECHNOLOGY AND ITS APPLICATIONS IN AGRICULTURE: OVERVIEW AND FUTURE PROSPECTS

Abstract

Our lives are being continuously transformed on account of a plethora of technological advancements. One such area is that of nanotechnology which is having a greater impact on a variety of industries, especially agriculture and allied fields. Nanomaterials are utilized in agriculture for a variety of purposes. The goal of this research is to give a broad overview of nanotechnology's numerous applications in agriculture. Precision agriculture, smart agriculture, plant growth, crop monitoring, and phytopathogen identification are all topics we explore. We not only give an overview of these uses, but we also discuss the future potential for nanotechnology in agriculture. We are convinced that this research is critical for researchers and government bodies.
