Nanopesticide: Current Status and Future Possibilities

Abstract: Excess use of chemical pesticides in agriculture assisting the accomplishment of agri-food production targets. But, indiscriminate use of chemical pesticide is the serious concern for environment and human, which deteriorating the soil health, nutritional quality of food and increasing resistance in phyto-pathogens and pests. Nanotechnology provided the sustainable solution in this regard by development of nanopesticide. In the current review, we explored the development of nano-pesticides and their impact on … Show more

“…Botanical pesticides have been shown to provide effective control of different species of agricultural pests, in many cases being more effective than synthetic chemicals, due to their varied mechanisms of action (Sola et al, 2014a,b;Tambwe et al, 2014;Oliveira et al, 2017;Štefanidesová et al, 2017). An important point is that the formulation of new commercial products (using, for example, nanotechnological techniques) could further enhance the performance of these natural compounds, reducing both the dosages required and their toxicity towards nontarget organisms, especially the soil microbiota (Chhipa, 2017;de Oliveira et al, 2014;Mattos et al, 2017;Mossa, 2016).…”

“…However, extensive and intensive use of these compounds has resulted in environmental contamination, development of resistance in some species, decreased food safety, and side effects in non-target organisms (Aktar et al 2009;Fountain and Wratten 2013;Prasad et al 2014;. To address these issues, the development of nano-based pesticides and also the utilization of bio-based pesticides has become an important research tool (Campos et al 2016(Campos et al , 2018Hayles et al 2017;Hemraj 2017;Kah et al 2018;Jampílek and Kráľová 2015a, 2018c, 2019a and the application of nanofertilizers results in increased nutrient use efficiency in crop production (Achari and Kowshik 2018;Jampílek and Kráľová 2017c;Raliya et al 2018). Nanoemulsions (NEs) showing desirable physico-chemical characteristics have been extensively studied as carriers for pesticide delivery (Wang et al 2007;Knowles 2008;Hayles et al 2017;Hazra et al 2017).…”

“…Biochemical pesticides are naturally occurring substance that interferes with growth or mating such as plant growth regulators or substances that repel or attract pests, such as pheromone [13]. Even with the satisfactory results of biopesticides on pest management, the efficacy at different geographical conditions and slow pest control makes them less desirable by farmers [14]. The science of biopesticides is still considered to be young and evolving.…”

“…In recent years, a new technology that provided a sustainable solution is nanotechnology through the development of nanopesticides for conventional agricultural use [16,17]. Nanopesticides are small engineered structures that provide pesticide properties or formulation of active ingredient of pesticides in nanoform; these nanostructures show slow degradation and controlled release of nanopesticides which make them environmentally safer and less toxic compared to chemical pesticides [14]. The nanosystems have shown great capability of controlled release pattern of active ingredient (AI) making them more efficient for long time period usability that can solve eutrophication and residual pesticide accumulation problem [18].…”
