Long description:

Engineered Nanomaterials for Agricultural Sustainability: Current Status, Methods and Future Strategies addresses the bottleneck between the development and implementation of nanotechnology created by the knowledge gap in the science, regulation and impact on both the environment and consumers. The book presents the latest insights from studies on the mechanisms and fate of nanomaterials in plants in a structured and organized way that enables the reader to design nanomaterials for specific agricultural applications, avoid undesirable effects on those plants, and to identify the most appropriate path forward toward commercial application. With important insights into the regulatory constraints, this volume will be a go-to reference for those seeking to find strategies for using nanomaterials and nanotechnology to improve agricultural output and food security.

Table of Contents:
1. Engineering nanomaterials for agricultural applications
2. Nanomaterial characterization for studying plant interactions
3. Detection and quantitation of nanomaterials in plants
4. Nano-fertilizers: nanomaterials for smart delivery and nutrient regulation
5. Nano-pesticides for biotic stress
6. Nanomaterials for soil and nutrient management
7. Nanosensors for monitoring parameters critical for plant growth and productivity.
8. Nanomaterial-induced plant response to abiotic stress
9. Tools for detecting nano-induced biological response and mechanisms in plants
10. Application of nanotechnology in storage and packaging of agricultural products
11. Co-exposure of plants to nano-based agrochemicals and residual chemicals
12. Nutritional implication and food safety of nanomaterial use in agricultural products
13. Risk assessment and regulatory decision making for nanomaterial use in agriculture
