Full Description
This book presents recent trends in nanotechnology to manage agroforestry systems. A major focus has been given to green synthesis of nanoparticles, nutrient management, stress management, crop and tree production, and risk assessment for sustainable management of crops and trees using nanomaterials. The book also discusses the complex interactions of nanoparticles in agroforestry ecosystems. It provides an understanding of the nanoparticle transformation process from laboratory to field conditions that will help in technology transfer at a mass scale. Following the excellent contributions from global experts, the book will be very useful for students, scientists, conservationists, growers, and policymakers searching for the challenges and opportunities of nanotechnology in integrated farming systems.
