While nano-pesticides offer numerous benefits, there are also potential risks that need to be addressed. These include:
Toxicity: The small size and high reactivity of nanoparticles may pose unknown health risks to humans and wildlife. Environmental Impact: The long-term effects of nanoparticles on soil and water ecosystems are not fully understood. Regulatory Challenges: Existing pesticide regulations may not adequately cover the unique properties and behaviors of nano-pesticides.
