Description

This book explores the transformative role of nanotechnology in modern farming. With a focus on nanosensors and nanobiosensors, this book highlights their growing applications in agriculture to monitor critical environmental and agricultural factors. Nanosensors, utilizing advanced materials like carbon nanotubes and quantum dots, offer solutions for detecting pollutants, measuring gas concentrations, and monitoring water quality, helping farmers make informed decisions. Nanobiosensors, on the other hand, combine biological elements with nanotechnology to detect pesticides, pathogens, soil contaminants, and more, enabling precise, real-time data collection at the molecular level. The integration of these sensors with satellite farming systems enhances farm efficiency by providing localized data on plant health, soil conditions, and pest activity, supporting sustainable farming practices. Despite challenges in regulation and technology, nanotechnology holds immense potential to revolutionize agriculture, making it more sustainable and environmentally responsible. This book provides an in-depth look into the capabilities of nanosensors, offering valuable insights for researchers, scientists, and students in agricultural science, plant biotechnology, environmental science, and related fields. Whether you're interested in precision agriculture, bioremediation, or improving farm sustainability, this book offers a comprehensive guide to the future of farming technology.
