Smart nano-fertilizers: a path to sustainable agriculture.
Nano-fertilizers are one of the greatest innovations for the improvement of agriculture, promoting nutrient uptake efficiency and minimizing nutrient loss and environmental pollution index as to conventional fertilizers. The important properties of nano-fertilizers that enhance their efficiency and help minimize the phenomena involving overuse and harmful runoff are characterized as a high surface-area-to-volume ratio, high solubility, and controlled-release mechanism. Numerous nanomaterials, such as carbonaceous and metal-based ones, have been explored for their potential to modulate nutrient delivery and absorption. The coupling of nanosensors and nano-fertilizers with precision farming ensures real-time nutrient monitoring with targeted fertilization, which helps to eradicate wastage while improving crop productivity. This review addresses the synthesis, mechanisms of action, delivery pathways, and effects on soil microbiota, including comparative advantages and environmental implications. In viewing the possible advantages, key challenges hindering the mass use of nano-fertilizers include potential toxicity, production costs, farmer adoption, scalability, and regulatory compliance. Long-term effects on soil health and ecology require further study. Future research should focus on developing biodegradable, sustainable nano-fertilizers with clear regulatory frameworks.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Geochemistry and Health publishes original research papers and review papers across the broad field of environmental geochemistry. Environmental geochemistry and health establishes and explains links between the natural or disturbed chemical composition of the earth’s surface and the health of plants, animals and people.
Beneficial elements regulate or promote enzymatic and hormonal activity whereas other elements may be toxic. Bedrock geochemistry controls the composition of soil and hence that of water and vegetation. Environmental issues, such as pollution, arising from the extraction and use of mineral resources, are discussed. The effects of contaminants introduced into the earth’s geochemical systems are examined. Geochemical surveys of soil, water and plants show how major and trace elements are distributed geographically. Associated epidemiological studies reveal the possibility of causal links between the natural or disturbed geochemical environment and disease. Experimental research illuminates the nature or consequences of natural or disturbed geochemical processes.
The journal particularly welcomes novel research linking environmental geochemistry and health issues on such topics as: heavy metals (including mercury), persistent organic pollutants (POPs), and mixed chemicals emitted through human activities, such as uncontrolled recycling of electronic-waste; waste recycling; surface-atmospheric interaction processes (natural and anthropogenic emissions, vertical transport, deposition, and physical-chemical interaction) of gases and aerosols; phytoremediation/restoration of contaminated sites; food contamination and safety; environmental effects of medicines; effects and toxicity of mixed pollutants; speciation of heavy metals/metalloids; effects of mining; disturbed geochemistry from human behavior, natural or man-made hazards; particle and nanoparticle toxicology; risk and the vulnerability of populations, etc.
