Nanotechnology in Agriculture Energy and Environment

About this book

The nanoworld is perhaps the fastest growing world in the twenty-first century and advantages of nanotechnology towards improving the quality of life are enormous. The potentials of nano systems have just started showing encouraging results in agriculture sector and better understanding of nano materials can contribute hugely to ensure food and nutritional security. This book on Nanotechnology in Agriculture, Energy and Environment is a compilation of both basics and applied aspects and the objective of this book is to provide a study material to students and young researchers in nanotechnology pertaining to agriculture, food technology, energy, environment and ecosystem health. The study materials have been compiled in twelve units and thirty three chapters. This book can help teachers, students and researchers to develop a clear vision and better understanding of nano technological interventions in agriculture, besides providing valuable lead for future research. This book helps to create a firm foundation on Nanotechnology in Agriculture, that anyone can build on in any way they wish.
