Abstract
Agricultural systems, water resources and many other fields could all be revolutionized by nanotechnology. Because nanotechnology can work with the smallest particles possible, it may be able to solve issues that traditional methods have not been able to, which could increase agricultural productivity. The synthesis of chemical pesticides, fertilizers, and other nanomaterials that enhance plant health, growth, and yield is just one application of nanotechnology in agriculture. Nanosensors are the most important tools in recent agriculture for the advance detection of plant diseases, and nanomaterials (NMs) have the power to change the soil quality and get rid of pollutants like heavy metals and unwanted microbes. However, nanotechnological approaches are beneficial for revolutionizing the sustainability of agriculture.
