Abstract
The current agricultural practice is to develop novel Nano agrochemicals in the form of Nano pesticides. Many researchers in the world have foretold an upheaval in present agricultural practice. This paper aims at the application of nanotechnology for plant protection in the form of Nano pesticides. Our study endowed with a novel polymeric Nano formulation of a dithiocarbamate nonsystemic agricultural fungicide called Mannose (MCB) by using polycaprolactone as a capping agent. The encapsulated dithiocarbamate complex was characterized by using analytical techniques like UV-Visible spectroscopy, Dynamic light scattering, Scanning electron microscope, and Transmission electron microscope. The particle size distribution emerged at 17-44nm. The bioassay was conducted against Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger, Sclerotium rolfsii, and Rhizoctonia solani. The bioassay illustrated better results as compared to the commercial pesticide.
