Nanoparticles: a Novel Approach for Sustainable Agro-productivity

“…Furthermore, several book chapters have been published within this series regarding the applications of nanotechnology in food and agriculture sectors. These chapters include nanofood processing and packaging (e.g., Brandelli et al 2016;Kumar et al 2016;Kuswandi 2016;Purkayastha et al 2016;Rao and Naidu 2016;Sarkar et al 2016;, nano-agriculture (Chowdhury et al 2016;Dasgupta et al 2016;Kasana et al 2016;Madhumitha et al 2016;Pramanik and Pramanik 2016;Shalaby et al 2016), nanoparticles remediation in soils and water (Belal and El-Ramady 2016; Khan et al 2016;Prashantha Kumar et al 2016;Pulimi and Subramanian 2016;Shalaby et al 2016;Xue et al 2016), nanobiotechnology (Brandelli et al 2016;Kasana et al 2016), etc.…”

“…The interaction between nanoparticles under soil-plant system can consider one the most important agroenvironmental studies. Therefore, several studies have been focused on these agro-environmental studies including the interactions between nanoparticles under soil-plant systems (Manceau et al 2008;Anjum et al 2013;Soni et al 2015;Belal and El-Ramady 2016;Majumdar et al 2016;Wu et al 2016;Tripathi et al 2017;, the impacts of applied nanoparticles on the microbial community in soils (Pawlett et al 2013;Chunjaturas et al 2014;Sri Sindhura et al 2014;Simonin and Richaume 2015;Antisari et al 2016;Pallavi et al 2016;Read et al 2016;Samarajeewa et al 2017), the using of nanoparticles in remediation both of soils and waters (An and Dong 2015;Cecchin et al 2016;Ghosh et al 2016;Gonçalves 2016;De La Cueva Bueno et al 2017;El-Ramady et al 2017a;Fernandes et al 2017;Kuppusamy et al 2017), the enhancement of nanofertilizers and nanopesticides for the plant growth and its protection (Davarpanah et al 2016;El-Ramady et al 2017b;, the using of soil nano-reclaimants and nano-conditioners under sustainable agro-production (Patra et al 2016;Fernandes et al 2017;), nano-enhancement for crop productivity under stress (Abdel-Haliem et al 2017;Rizwan et al 2017;Tassi et al 2017), etc.…”
