Abstract
Climate changes expose crops to frequent harsh environmental conditions, thereby decreasing food production. During the last few decades, several efforts have been made to generate stress-tolerant and climate-resilient crops and increase yield to meet the food demands of the increasing global population. Therefore, a nano-based approach is a promising tool for the sustainable development of agriculture and has many advantages over conventional approaches and products. In addition to their use as carrier systems for bioactive molecules, some nanoparticles have intrinsic properties that can increase plant growth and stress tolerance. This article focuses on the potential use of a nano-based approach to increase crop resilience against climate change and improve productivity for sustainable agriculture development. In addition, the challenges of reproducing laboratory results in the field are discussed.
