Review highlights how nanotechnology enhances crop protection and nutrient delivery, suggesting improved efficiency and sustainability.

Nanotechnology improves nutrient delivery and pest control efficiency in agriculture, potentially reducing input use by 30–50%.
Key technologies include nano-fertilisers and nano-pesticides that enhance crop yields while minimizing environmental impacts.
Integration of nanosensors enables real-time monitoring of plant health and nutrient levels, facilitating precise agricultural management.
Despite benefits, biosafety concerns need addressing through regulation and long-term ecotoxicological studies.

Chaudhary et al. (2025) studied this question.
