This book covers the use and impacts of nanofertilizers from a
sustainable agriculture perspective and together with its companion
book “Nanofertilizers in Agriculture: Synthesis, Mechanisms, and
Effect on Plants” serves as an indispensable resource for
researchers, agronomists, and policymakers exploring sustainable
agriculture with nanotechnology. Divided into 4 main sections, the
book begins with a critical overview of the impact of nanofertilizers
on the ecosystem, their toxicity, and implications on the protection
of the environment, followed by a section devoted to the use of
nanoparticles for disease management. Subsequent sections offer a
perspective of nanofertilizers in soil and water health, and
economical analysis. In this book, readers will find chapters covering
topics such as the toxicity of nano fertilizers due to overuse, their
role in controlling soil-borne fungal pathogens, and their potential
for safe and sustainable agriculture with a focus on organic farming.
Readers will also gain insights into nanotechnology applications for
plant pathogen detection, viral disease management, and nematode
disease control. The authors present an expert analysis of the impact
of nano fertilizers on soil properties, crop productivity,
groundwater, and soilless agricultural systems. This book is
particularly valuable for researchers in agricultural science, and it
is also relevant for environmental scientists interested in
sustainable practices and nanotechnologists exploring agricultural
applications. Practitioners such as farmers and agronomists will find
practical insights for integrating nanotechnology into their work.
This volume is a must-read for anyone invested in the future of
sustainable agriculture.
