Abstract

The use of Nano-fertilizer (NF) technology in agriculture has the potential to revolutionise crop cultivation, boost yields, and reduce environmental impact. Nano-fertilizer can reduce the environmental damage caused by traditional fertilizers while increasing yields from agriculture. The focus of this article is on ways to reduce the adverse consequences of heat stress, including the use of different materials and techniques. In order to maintain farmed plants under stress and to increase plant output both numerically and qualitatively, Nano fertilizers might be extremely important. However, there are a number of challenges, such as the problem of regulatory barriers that make it difficult to encourage the sector to embrace this new technology. Regulations must be put in place by governments to encourage companies to do research and development on nanotechnology while safeguarding public health and safety from any risks these products may pose.
