Nanotechnology in agriculture.
Throughout the years, science and technology have sought to improve the quality of life of people with their continuous advances, technology is present in everything that surrounds us, which is why it has become so important in our world. The agricultural world does not escape from this and advances have always been sought to improve the productivity of the field. Nanotechnology has made great contributions to this sector with the creation of nanoparticles that help reduce the application of chemical fertilizers.
Nanotechnology brings great benefits to the agricultural sector from the point of view of fertilization, since it is well known that chemical fertilizers cause great damage to soils, the environment and are harmful to people's health. The advances that have been made in this area show the great capabilities that nanotechnology can provide in this area with the creation of nanoparticles loaded with specific nanonutrients according to the requirements of the soil and the plant.
A study conducted on a wheat crop showed the great benefits of the application of these nanoparticles that carry the necessary nutrients required by the soil and the crop, all under controlled conditions. These nano particles are loaded with natural bones that are rich in phosphorus (hydroxyapatite) and enriched with nitrogen, this result yielded great benefits to the wheat crop as it increased its grain yield and at the same time it was possible to reduce the application of chemical fertilizers by more than 40%.

All these important advances that nanotechnology offers to the agricultural sector are not only aimed at improving yields in food production, but also at preserving the environment. In order to achieve these objectives together, it is required that the nanoparticles are released in an intelligent way, that is, they discharge the product at high speeds and in a specific location during a specific time and period, making the nanocarriers, which are manometric size structures, protect the active substances and in this way the fertilization can be applied in a precise way, reducing the impact on the environment.

Given all this we can conclude that these technological advances with nanotechnology seek to substantially improve the yield and production of food that the field produces daily, in addition to contributing to the conservation of the environment and the health of people who consume these foods.

See you later brother, excellent article, have a great week.
Greetings @amestyj, yes there are certainly other more economical fertilization alternatives such as biofertilizers, the truth is that this advance is of utmost importance for the agricultural sector.
Thanks for your important comment my friend.
I love the fact that nanotechnology in fertilizer application will reduce the adverse effect on the soil and the environment as a whole. I think it's definitely high time we start adopting nanotechnology in our cropping system.
Thanks for sharing this great post with love from @hardaeborla and I hope you have a great day ahead ❤️💕❤️
Hi @hardaeborla, technology continues to bring solutions to the field, hence the importance of nanotechnology in the application of localized fertilizers and a specific and determined moment to avoid its negative impact.
Greetings friend. Nanotechnology is extending its reach to many areas, and this is a very promising application if it comes to replace the use of chemical fertilizers that, as you rightly mention, have serious consequences on the health of people and the environment. Let's hope that the cost of the technology allows its wide use and that studies show that it is truly safe.
Greetings @emiliomoron, certainly this technology has increased its impact in all areas of their environment, in the agricultural case has made important contributions such as this nanoparticles for fertilization.
hello @carlir one and 100 nanometers in size is beginning to be considered nanotechnology, technology becomes indispensable in many industrial areas.
Hello!!@carlir , nanotechnology has really better our living as human being and also help in conserving our environment .
Thanks for shearing
Hi @cindylove1, not only has it improved our lives, it has also positively impacted the care of the environment making it more and more used every day.
Greetings friend @carlir "Nanotechnology brings great benefits to the agricultural sector from the point of view of fertilization, since it is well known that chemical fertilizers cause great damage to soils, the environment and are harmful to people's health". The potential of nanotechnology is excellent and will greatly help agriculture and its processes without harming the environment. It will do ("a necessary evil") .... Bad for the companies that commercialize the harmful fertilizers in all its word that will have to re-design their chemical formulas and good for the agriculture in using non-polluting products for the environment.
Very good your publication. Thanks for sharing it.
Greetings friend @dgalan, nanotechnology has always sought to improve all agricultural processes positively impacting the fertilization process and in turn reducing damage to the environment.
Thanks for your comment.
Thanks so much for informative and nice post.

In fact with the introduction of technology in agriculture it had boasted production of goods and services
Greetings professor, interesting topic actually, it's great that they are using better technologies in agriculture which will keep our environment safe, at least for the future years, but I asked myself a question while reading, why it's not widely used as a technology? Is it new or it is expensive and not any government can afford to use it?
