In this paper we describe a strategy for sustained release of nitrogen into the soil. Specifically, ureamodified hydroxyapatite nanoparticles were encapsulated under pressure into cavities of the soft wood of Gliricidia sepium. Nitrogen release of the nanofertilizer composition was studied using soil from three elevations in Sri Lanka (pH 4.2, 5.2 and 7) and compared with that of a commercial f...

Nanofertilizer prepared with urea-hydroxyapatite amalgamation along PGPR promotes urea availability over longer period of plant growth and reduces wasteful expense in soil, curtailing environmental pollution.

objective: this field experiment was laid out in order to study on effect of nano and bio fertilizers on yield and yield components of tomato (lycopersicone sculentum l.) during the growing seasons 2013- 2014. methods: the experiment was laid out in a factorial based on randomized block design with three replications. treatments were k nanofertilizer in five levels such as (0, 100, 200, 300 and...

The Haber–Bosch process for the commercial production of ammonia demonstrated in 1913 was a watershed event in the mass production of urea, the principal nitrogen fertilizer for modern agriculture. Today, thanks to the so-called “green revolution” starting in in the 1960s, nearly half of the world population relies on increased crop yields, through the use of nitrogen fertilizers, to access aff...

To develop saffron planting in Urmia, West Azerbaijan, Iran, a split-split plot experiment based on CRBD was carried out in the Urmia University's research farm for two years (2013-14). Nanofertilizers (Fe, P, K and nofertilizer (control)) as main plots, saffron ecotypes (Mashhad, Torbat-Heydarieh, Torbat-jam, Gonabad, Ghaen and Birjand) as subplots and maternal corm weight (6, 8, 10 and 12 g) ...

Wheat is staple food crop for the world. Nutrient management one of important determinants yield crop. Conventional fertilizers are having several challenges in form cost, their losses environment and use efficiencies. Nanofertilizer emerging as a potential alternative to these owing small size. Nanofertilizers both macro micro nutrients have seen improvement other quality parameters nutrient c...
