Nanotechnology in agriculture
Nanotechnology is increasingly transforming agriculture and crop production, enabling the development of a new generation of agrochemicals aimed at reducing negative environmental impacts while maintaining crop yields. This Collection gathers interdisciplinary research focusing on nanoformulation of agrochemicals and other nanotechnological applications in agriculture. It also provides a home for nanotoxicology research and sheds light on how nanomaterials interact with plants, their environment, and other organisms.
