Preface
Agriculture is one of the fundamental sectors that can be never ignored by any
society. The industrialization and growing human population have adverse effects
on all sectors of agriculture, which may soon be resulting in a reduction in the
production of various commodities like food, meat, milk, and so on. The world’s
population is constantly increasing, while agricultural resources are constantly
decreasing due to overexploitation. To meet additional demand for output from
agriculture sector which can be sustainable, there isan immediate need for the use
of new tools and technologies in all components of agriculture. For sustainable
agricultural production in the future, we must be able to develop tools which can
reducetheagriculturalinputsrequiredforoptimumproduction.Secondly,weneed

itreachestotheconsumer.Forthis,thetraditional methodhasbeenroutinelyused
with little success. An alternative strategy for sustainable agriculture is the use of
novel technologies like biotechnology and nanotechnology.

minimize nutrient losses through optimized nutrient management. The nanomate-
rials and tools also can be used for quality enhancement and management offood
products.It canincreaseinshelf life ofmeat andmilk products. Devices and tools
like nanocapsules, nanoparticles, nanocomposites, and sensors developed through
the application of nanotechnology can be used for the detection and treatment of
plant and animal diseases, the increase of nutrients absorption by crop plants, the
targeted delivery of active ingredients in animals and plants, along with water and
timber treatment processes. The usage of targeted delivery and slow-releasing
agrochemicals can reduce the damage to non-target organisms and the quantity
released into the soil and water. Nanotechnology derived tools are also being
explored in the field of plant and animal genetic improvement.
Despite the potential advantages, the application of nanotechnology in agricul-

has some issues that still need to be addressed. So, there is a need of continuing
research in the commercial agrochemical industry to utilize potential future
advantages. The concern regarding the regulation and evaluation of safety of
nanomaterials also needs to be addressed. The aim of this book is addressing the
issue of knowledge gap. It is hoped that this book will interest students and
researchers in the lasted outcomes of nanotechnology research in the field of
agriculture andallied sciencesandencouragetheyoungresearcherstoexplorethis
