Prospects of Nanotechnology in Improving the Productivity and Quality of Horticultural Crops
Original language description
Nanotechnology shows high promise in the improvement of agricultural productivity thus aiding future food security. In horticulture, maintaining quality as well as limiting the spoilage of harvested fruit and vegetables is a very challenging task. Various kinds of nanomaterials have shown high potential for increasing productivity, enhancing shelf life, reducing post harvest damage and improving the quality of horticultural crops. Antimicrobial nanomaterials as nanofilm on harvested products and or on packaging materials are suitable for the storage and transportation of vegetables and fruits. Nanomaterials also increase the vitality of the cut flower. Nanofertilizers are target specific, slow releasing and highly efficient in increasing vegetative growth, pollination and fertility in flowers, resulting in increased yield and improved product quality for fruit trees and vegetables. Formulated nanopesticides are target specific, eco friendly and highly efficient. Nanosensors facilitate up to date moni
