How Are Biotechnological Methods Used in Agriculture?
In agriculture, biotechnological methods in nanotechnology offer innovative solutions for improving crop yield and protecting plants from diseases and pests:
Nano-fertilizers: These provide nutrients in a controlled release manner, improving nutrient uptake efficiency and reducing environmental pollution. Nano-pesticides: These can target pests more effectively while minimizing harm to beneficial organisms and reducing chemical residue in the environment. Plant Growth Regulators: Nanoparticles can be used to deliver hormones and other growth regulators in a controlled manner, promoting healthy plant development.
