Nanofertilizer Delivery, Effects and Application Methods explores the science of nutrient nanoformulation, a potential tool toward sustainable and climate-sensitive crops. The book discusses the potential agricultural benefits of nanofertilizers, from coverage of their formulation and delivery, to application, plant uptake, translocation, and destiny, and their overall effect on plant physiology and metabolism. As the widespread use of chemical fertilizers has been shown to causes significant damage to soil structure, mineral cycles, soil microbial flora, plants, and create human health risk, both immediately and for future generations, this book elucidates on the latest findings.

According to recent studies, through environmental cues and biological demands, nano-fertilizers can respond to specifical challenges and boost agricultural yield by increasing the rate of seed germination, seedling growth, photosynthetic activity, nitrogen metabolism, and carbohydrate and protein synthesis. This book is ideal for researchers in industry and academia.

Highlights types, uses, and advantages of a wide range and variety of nanofertilizers on agri-food sectors
Looks at current practices, their challenges, and future development opportunities
Includes methods and applications for real-world insights
