Nanotechnology involves manipulating materials at the nanoscale (1 to 100 nm), resulting in enhanced physical, chemical, biological, mechanical, magnetic, optical, and electrical properties. In agriculture, nanotechnology has diverse applications, including in fertilization, irrigation, pest control, packaging, and food processing. Nano fertilizers are particularly important for advancing sustainable agriculture and promoting environmental health. These fertilizers utilize nanoparticles with unique properties that improve effectiveness, leading to increased fruit productivity, enhanced yield quality, and extended shelf life. Nano fertilizers achieve these benefits by influencing various plant traits, such as morphological, physiological, and molecular characteristics. They are created by combining plant nutrients with nanomaterials, coating nutrients with nanomaterial layers, or forming nano-sized emulsions. Additionally, nano biofertilizers, which combine both natural and synthetic elements, enhance nutrient bioavailability and soil fertility, making them more efficient than traditional fertilizers. By improving sustainability in global food production, nano fertilizers represent a promising solution for addressing agricultural challenges. This review aims to explore the role of nano fertilizers in agricultural production, discussing their advantages over conventional fertilizers and distinguishing between different types of nano fertilizers.
