Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agriculture plays a vital role in our lives, providing food and economic benefits. Today, it faces severe challenges, due to decreasing arable land, depleting natural resources, changing climate pattern, and yet increasing demand for food. The recent introduction of nanotechnology in agriculture offers sustainable and precise solutions for developing smart agriculture practices and addressing the challenges faced by the ag-sector. Therefore, it is essential to understand this new science from a multidimensional perspective. Experts in the field have contributed in putting together this volume, covering topics like plant growth, protection and management using engineering nanoscale materials. The chapters in the book have been peer-reviewed and selected for publication based on independent reviewers’ reports. The book covers very specific, in-depth, and fundamental and applied aspects of the latest ag-nanotechnology research. It is hoped that each chapter of the book will be very useful for researchers, policy makers, and other audiences from interdisciplinary scientific subjects.

Book excerpt: Recent scientific research indicate that nanotechnology has the potential to positively impact the agri-food sector, minimizing adverse problems of agricultural practices on environment and human health, improving food security and productivity, while promoting social and economic equity. Recently, a good vary of potential applications of engineering science have been envisaged conjointly in agriculture, resulting in intense analysis at each educational and industrial levels. Nanotechnology has the prospective to improve the agriculture and food industry with novel nanotools for the controlling of rapid disease diagnostic, enhancing the capacity of plants to absorb nutrients among others. The significant interests of exploitation applied science in agriculture includes specific applications like nanofertilizers and nanopesticides to path merchandise and nutrients levels to extend the productivity while not remotion of soils, waters, and protection against many insect blighter, and Microbics diseases.In this book, we will narrow down the analysis of nanotechnology applications specifically dedicated to field crop and plant production. Nanotechnology is a rapidly evolving field with the potential to take forward the agriculture and food industry with new tools which promise to increase food production in a sustainable manner and to protect crops from pests. Nanotechnology can find applications also in the development of analytical devices dedicated to the control of quality, bio/security, and safety not only in agriculture, but also along the food supply chain. Thus, in the very near future, scientific research will be requested to provide new paradigms and practices to solve highly complex and diverse problems. The book in following chapters critically examine the morphological, physiological, and genotoxic aspects of environmental nanoparticles interactions with plants; effects of manganese nanoparticle exposure on nutrient acquisition in wheat; influence of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles on germination and plant metabolism of tomato; zinc oxide nanoparticles for revolutionizing agriculture; efficiency of nanoparticle, yield, and nitrogen assimilation in green beans. The book provides a valuable source of information on this developing field for those involved with agriculture and farming and agricultural engineering.
