Abstract

The utilization of nanopesticides is a young and very promising direction in agriculture. Their use can significantly improve many parameters of the used drugs. Nevertheless, there are many disputes and hypotheses about the impact of such pesticides on the environment. There are many examples of nanopesticides in the literature with an inorganic active substance. They are widely used in practice and are sufficiently described in the literature. In this chapter, emphasis will be placed on the use of nanopesticides with photosensitive organic active substances. Methods for their preparation, effect on the target pathogen, and degradation pathways will be described.
