“…Oxide nanoparticles synthesized by physical methods are commonly used as nanofertilizers. 97,98 The present study 99 describes an approach to produce Se nanoparticles by laser ablating Se in water using a ytterbium fiber laser and a copper vapor laser. The size and mass of the resulting nanoparticles were found to be monodisperse and can be varied by changing the laser fragmentation time.…”

With the world’s population expected to exceed nine billion by 2050, scientists are working to develop new ways to meet rising global demand for food, energy and water without increasing the strain on natural resources. Organisations including the World Bank and the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organisation are calling for more innovation to address the challenges of the agri-food sector. The wide use of synthetic fertilisers has led to negative impacts on the environment and on farmer economies. Innovative cost-effective and eco-compatible strategies are needed in the modern and in the future precision agriculture. This goal could be achieved by reducing the amount of fertilisers applied on crops, in particular, by finding new techniques to distribute the necessary plant nutrients taking into account water and land scarcity, climate change and ecosystems. Nanotechnology is one of six keyenabling technologies that contribute to smart, sustainable competitiveness and inclusive growth in many sectors. It is expected that properly designed nanostructures will allow controlled release of nutrients to synchronise the release with crops nutritional needs. However, the deliberate introduction of nano-sized materials in agricultural activities raises concerns over the possible implications for human health and the environment. The introduction of nanotechnologies in agriculture still need deepen basic and applied knowledge, however several promising results were achieved, so far. The paper presents an overview on the most recent insights and the perspectives of applied research.

“…To treat some challenges facing the farmers, such as low productivity and inefficiency of traditional fertilizers. Therefore, it requires work by applying leading technologies such as nanotechnology to accurately detect how to provide the right amount of fertilizers that enhance productivity and with high efficiency while ensuring environmental safety so that nano fertilizers can be used to control its liberation as an environmental friend towards achieving sustainable and environmentally compatible agriculture [5,6]. Nanotechnology is an applied science that controls matter at dimensions of 1-100 nanometers.…”

Research into the impact of spraying balanced Nano-fertilizer and boron on the vegetative growth characteristics of two hybrids of the cabbage plant, Brassica oleracea var. capitata L., was conducted during the 2021/9/1 agricultural season at the Horticultural Research Station and Landscape - Agriculture College - Tikrit University. There were three variables in this study: the first was the concentration of the balanced Nano-fertilizer NPK (30, 20, 0 gL-1), the second was the concentration of the boron spray (5, 10, 20 mgL-1), and the third was the hybrids (Dlal, Globe Master). Duncan’s multiple range test was utilized for the statistical analysis, with a significance level of 5%. Duncan’s multiple range test with a 5% significance level was used to compare the outcomes. In summary, the study found that spraying the plant with a concentration of 30gL-1 of Nano-fertilizer significantly increased plant height, the number of outer and inner leaves of the head, and the length and width of the longest leaf, while spraying with a concentration of 20mg L-1 gave the highest value in the rate of dry material. Height, number of outer and inner leaves of the head, chlorophyll, and leaf area were all significantly boosted when the plant was sprayed with 5mg L-1 of boron. The hybrid Dlal outperformed the hybrid Globe Master in every growth-related quality tested, especially in terms of leaf characteristics.
