Abstract
This comprehensive review explores the burgeoning field of nanotechnology and its transformative impact on agricultural yield expansion. Nanotechnology offers unprecedented opportunities to address key challenges facing global agriculture, including soil degradation, resource inefficiency, pest and disease management, and climate change adaptation. By manipulating materials at the nanoscale, researchers have developed innovative solutions to enhance soil fertility, improve crop protection, optimize resource utilization, and promote sustainable farming practices. This paper examines recent advancements in nanofertilisers, nanopesticides, nanosensors, and precision agriculture technologies, providing insights into their mechanisms of action and potential benefits for crop productivity. Nanotechnology enables the development of nanorobots and nanoscale devices for automated farming operations and precision agriculture applications. Furthermore, environmental and safety considerations, as well as regulatory frameworks governing nanotechnology in agriculture, are discussed to ensure responsible and sustainable deployment of these technologies. Through case studies and practical examples, the review underscores the transformative potential of nanotechnology in revolutionizing agricultural practices and contributing to global food security. Finally, challenges, future perspectives, and recommendations for further research and implementation are outlined to guide the continued development and adoption of nanotechnology for agricultural yield expansion.
