Nanotechnology in Agriculture
Introduction Nanotechnology is the creation and utilization of materials, devices and systems through the control of the properties and structure of matter at the nanometric scale. Nanobiotechnology is a new and exciting field of research, in which recent advances in nanotechnology are integrated into the biology realm, in particular into molecular biology and cell biology. ‘Nano’ usually refer...
متن کاملNanotechnology: The new perspective in precision agriculture
Nanotechnology is an interdisciplinary research field. In recent past efforts have been made to improve agricultural yield through exhaustive research in nanotechnology. The green revolution resulted in blind usage of pesticides and chemical fertilizers which caused loss of soil biodiversity and developed resistance against pathogens and pests as well. Nanoparticle-mediated material delivery to...
متن کاملNanotechnology in agriculture: prospects and constraints
Attempts to apply nanotechnology in agriculture began with the growing realization that conventional farming technologies would neither be able to increase productivity any further nor restore ecosystems damaged by existing technologies back to their pristine state; in particular because the long-term effects of farming with "miracle seeds", in conjunction with irrigation, fertilizers, and pest...
