“…Perishable and non-perishable foods both saw a rise in production due to green revolution (Harwood, 2020). Highyielding varieties are the primary components of the green revolution (GR) (Konappa et al, 2021;Alimkulova and Aitmukhanbetova, 2020;Reddy et al, 2021). Pakistan embraced GR in the late 1960s.…”

Recently, it has been observed that fossil fuel utilization increased to manage the issue of food insecurity; however, it has increased the risk of environmental degradation and land availability. Therefore, the role of a farmer is to ensure food security (FS). With the assistance of the green revolution (GR), green finance (GF) and green energy have increased manifold. For this purpose, the current study utilized a time-series dataset between 2071 and 2019 to evaluate the relationship between green finance, green energy, and the green revolution with food security. This objective has been considered with modern econometric methods, including the Johansen cointegration model and impulse response. As a result, the Johansen model affirmed cointegration between the green revolution, green finance, and green energy with food security. According to the results, food security will rise by 0.17%, 2.05%, 0.006%, and 0.023%, with a 1% increase in fossil fuel utilization, green finance, improved seeds, and water availability, respectively. Furthermore, based on the diagnostic statistics, the Johansen model’s credibility, stability, and reliability were corrected. In light of these findings and the impulse response function, all relevant factors will favor future food security. Finally, this study suggested that the public and commercial sectors should invest significantly in R&D to produce organic chemicals and agricultural methods that preserve soil fertility and reduce environmental degradation.

Nanotechnology: A promising field of advanced interdisciplinary research has unlocked an extensive range of scenarios in the sectors like agriculture, electronics, pharmacy, healthcare, pest management and much more. In agriculture, the potential uses and benefits of nanotechnology are enormous. With the use of Nanotechnology, the management of insect pests through the formulations of nanomaterial-based insecticides have changed the course of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). Traditional strategies in Integrated Pest Management used in agriculture are insufficient and the application of chemical pesticides have caused adverse effects on animals, human health and the environment. With the utilization of nanotechnological approaches, the green and efficient alternatives would provide the management of insect pests without causing an impact on animals and the environment. The present study aims to focus on the management of insect pests utilizing modern nanotechnological approaches.

“…Nanofertilizers have been shown to improve crop yield and quality with improved nutrient use efficiency and reduced production costs [ 44 ]. The advantages of nanofertilizers over sole inorganic fertilizers rely on their slow-release targeted delivery system associated with cementing nanomaterials ( Figure 2 ) [ 45 ].…”

Intensive conventional agriculture and climate change have induced severe ecological damages and threatened global food security, claiming a reorientation of agricultural management and public policies towards a more sustainable development model. In this context, nanomaterials promise to support this transition by promoting mitigation, enhancing productivity, and reducing contamination. This review gathers recent research innovations on smart nanoformulations and delivery systems improving crop protection and plant nutrition, nanoremediation strategies for contaminated soils, nanosensors for plant health and food quality and safety monitoring, and nanomaterials as smart food-packaging. It also highlights the impact of engineered nanomaterials on soil microbial communities, and potential environmental risks, along with future research directions. Although large-scale production and in-field testing of nano-agrochemicals are still ongoing, the collected information indicates improvements in uptake, use efficiency, targeted delivery of the active ingredients, and reduction of leaching and pollution. Nanoremediation seems to have a low negative impact on microbial communities while promoting biodiversity. Nanosensors enable high-resolution crop monitoring and sustainable management of the resources, while nano-packaging confers catalytic, antimicrobial, and barrier properties, preserving food safety and preventing food waste. Though, the application of nanomaterials to the agri-food sector requires a specific risk assessment supporting proper regulations and public acceptance.
