Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of nano metal oxides as nanosensors in agriculture and the environment. Sensors are used at all stages of the life cycle of agricultural products. They are used in preparatory and growth stages, control of soil, water, air, and feed, and control of various auxiliary stages. Currently, the development of new sensors with improved characteristics is an urgent task. Modern sensors are a variety of nanostructured organic, inorganic, and combined materials. The most significant numbers of sensors presented in the literature and used in agriculture are organic. In this chapter, only nano metal oxide as nanosensor is considered, including the analysis of used metal oxides, methods of their synthesis. A wide range of examples of the use of nano metal oxide nanosensor are presented in agriculture and environmental monitoring.
