“…The study on green pepper plants by Nibin et al [284] found that the slow-release of nanofertilizer treatment positively impacted the microbial population and enzyme activity of the soil. In this study the soil treatment of nano NPK (12.5 kg ha −1 ) and the foliar spray of nano NPK (0.4 %) had highest bacterial population and also higher urease, acid phosphatase and dehydrogenase activities [284]. It is presumed that due to the slow release in nano-fertilization, a substantial level of humic acids is produced thus enabling supply of carbon and nitrogen to soil microbes [285].…”

Rhizospheric organisms have a unique manner of existence since many factors can influence the shape of the microbiome. As we all know, harnessing the interaction between soil microbes and plants is critical for sustainable agriculture and ecosystems. We can achieve sustainable agricultural practice by incorporating plant-microbiome interaction as a positive technology. The contribution of this interaction has piqued the interest of experts, who plan to do more research using beneficial microorganism in order to accomplish this vision. Plants engage in a wide range of interrelationship with soil microorganism, spanning the entire spectrum of ecological potential which can be mutualistic, commensal, neutral, exploitative, or competitive. Mutualistic microorganism found in plant-associated microbial communities assist their host in a number of ways. Many studies have demonstrated that the soil microbiome may provide significant advantages to the host plant. However, various soil conditions (pH, temperature, oxygen, physics-chemistry and moisture), soil environments (drought, submergence, metal toxicity and salinity), plant types/genotype, and agricultural practices may result in distinct microbial composition and characteristics, as well as its mechanism to promote plant development and defence against all these stressors. In this paper, we provide an in-depth overview of how the above factors are able to affect the soil microbial structure and communities and change above and below ground interactions. Future prospects will also be discussed.

“…The measurement results indicated that the nanofertilizer particles were stable. This colloid was much more stable than a reported organic nano-NPK formula [27]. Alginate and carboxylmethyl cellulose are highly hydrophilic polymers that play the role of stabilizers for the fertilizer [28,29].…”

The study of nanotechnology has been focused in recent years on the application in various fields including agriculture. Nanofertilizers were suggested to have the ability to supply plants with nutrients more effectively and thus significantly improve crop productivity. Previous studies reported the fabrication of nanofertilizers that contained only one or two essential elements. The addition of other nutrients is necessary for promoting plant development. Therefore, in this study, a novel integrated nanofertilizer containing both macro- and micronutritional elements was synthesized and characterized. The results showed that the prepared fertilizer had the rod shape and nanosize of 20-30 nm in width and 80 nm in length. Treatment of Polyscias fruticosa and Asparagus officinalis crops with the integrated nanofertilizer increased the number of branches, leaf area, dry matter production, and total biomass up to 50% at using level of 5% compared to nontreatment groups.

“…It is reasoned that the foliar application enhanced nutrient absorption, facilitating rapid nutrient transportation and delivery through plasmodesmata [5] . The advantages of nano urea are attributed to the unique properties of nano urea viz., small particle size (20-50 nm), large surface area and the presence of more reactive oxygen that enhances the photosynthetic rate and metabolic activities [6] . The availability at the target sites favourably influenced canopy development, the source strength for photosynthesis.…”

The field experiment to assess the influence of tillage practices and nano nitrogen on the yield and quality in Chinese potato was conducted at College of Agriculture, Vellayani, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala Agricultural University in 2022-23. The experiment was laid out in split plot design with three replications. The main plot treatments included conventional tillage, reduced tillage (RT) with surface incorporation of green manure cowpea and RT with surface retention of green manure cowpea and the sub plot treatments, different doses of nitrogen along with foliar spray of nano urea at 0.4 percent concentration. The results revealed the significant influence of reduced tillage and nano urea individually on tuber yield while among the combinations, RT + in situ green manuring and nano urea spray + RDF was found to yield comparatively better. Nano urea application significantly improved the quality attributes, starch, vitamin C and protein contents while significant variations with tillage methods were evident in vitamin C and protein Content alone.
