“…For example, foliar application of ZnO NPs improved the yield and crop quality [41,93] as well as the nutritional quality of seeds [94] and improved stomatal conductance and the crop drought stress index [94]. Furthermore, Moitazedi et al showed that foliar application of Zn fertilizer greatly remediated the impact of drought stress on the membrane stability index (MSI) [95]. Studies have also shown that in conditions of water deficit, foliar spraying of Fe and Zn nanofertilizers improved physiological properties and seed yield of beans with normal irrigation [85,96].…”

It is estimated that 40–70%, 80–90% and 50–90% of the conventional macronutrients N, P and K applied to the soil are lost, respectively, resulting in considerable loss of resources. Compared to conventional fertilizers, nanofertilizers have the advantages of controlled release, high nutrient utilization, low cost and relatively low environmental pollution due to their small size (1–100 nm) and high specific surface area. The application of nanofertilizers is an up-and-coming field of agricultural research and is an attractive and economical substitute for common fertilizers which can boost global food productivity sustainably. Foliar fertilization is a popular way to satisfy the needs of higher plants. Because of its small application dose, faster nutrient uptake than soil application and relatively less environmental pollution, foliar fertilization is more popular among plants. It can be seen that nanofertilizers and foliar fertilization are the hotspots of attention at present and that current research on the foliar application of nanofertilizers is not as extensive as that on soil application. Based on this background, this paper provides an overview of various applications of foliar spraying of nanofertilizers in agriculture, including applications in improving crop yield and quality as well as mitigating heavy metal stress, salt stress and drought stress.

“…Nano zinc primer sprayed with iron + zinc foliar spray increased grain protein by 21% and significantly increased chlorophyll content in leaves [ 112 ]. With the help of additional irrigation and a combination foliar spray of B + Mn + Zn nano chelate, the greatest wheat yield of 2528.33 kg/ha was produced [ 113 ]. Foliar applications of Fe, Zn, and Mg nano-chelate may boost plant production, plant dry weight, and chlorophyll concentration while assisting soybean to withstand drought stress [ 114 ].…”

To ensure food safety, the current agricultural development has put forward requirements for improving nutritional quality and reducing the harmful accumulation of agricultural chemicals. Nano-enabled sustainable agriculture and food security have been increasingly explored as a new research frontier. Nano-fertilizers show the potential to be more efficient than traditional fertilizers, reducing the amount used while ensuring plant uptake, supplying the inorganic nutrients needed by plants, and improving the process by which plants produce organic nutrients. Other agricultural uses of nanotechnology affect crop productivity and nutrient quality in addition to nano-fertilizers. This article will review the research progress of using nanomaterials to improve nutritional quality in recent years and point out the focus of future research.

“…Supplementation with micronutrients has become an important strategy to improve the nutritional status of plants or to induce a priming effect against abiotic stress conditions in plants. There are few publications considering the responses of Brassica rapa , Pisum sativum , Triticum aestivum , T. durum , and some fruits (Hajiboland & Farhanghi, 2011; Harsimrat & Sharma, 2023; Moitazedi et al, 2023; Tavanti et al, 2021) showing that plants supplied with B demonstrated higher stresses resilience compared to B‐sufficient plants. However, there is still a lack of information on how the foliar supplementation of B as a priming agent can increase the tolerance of agricultural crops to drought stress, especially considering the responses of soybean plant.…”

Drought is the major abiotic stress that limits growth, development and yield of crops worldwide. In this scenario, mineral nutrients, such as boron (B), have been promising for increasing the tolerance of plants to abiotic stresses because of their physiological roles in plants. We aimed to evaluate the benefits of foliar supplementation of B in either relieving or reducing the physiological damages caused by water stress in soybean (Glycine max L.). A greenhouse trial was carried out in a 2 × 3 factorial scheme, with two water conditions (well‐watered and drought stress) and three doses of B (0, 150 and 300 mg B L−1). Foliar application of B was before inducing the water stress, which remained for 20 days during vegetative stage. Plants were evaluated at three moments, according to the water conditions: maximum stress, rehydration and just before harvesting. The levels of hydrogen peroxide and lipid peroxidation increased in soybean leaves and roots under water stress, resulting in impaired plant growth. However, the foliar supplementation with B before the stress increased activities of the antioxidant enzymes and reduced the levels of stress markers. Furthermore, B applied foliar increased the nutrient concentration in the leaves of plants and stimulated root growth, which resulted in higher harvest index related to yield. The foliar application of B has shown as an alternative management to mitigate the damages caused by drought stress in soybean.
