Abstract
Ensuring food security in developing countries is highly challenging due to low productivity of the agriculture sector, degradation of natural resources, crop losses, less value addition, and high population growth. therefore, researchers are striving to adopt newer technologies to increase the supply of agricultural products. one of these technologies is nanotechnology. Nanotechnology is the science of producing, manufacturing and using materials at the atomic and molecular levels and it can transform various industries, including the agricultural industry, with the help of new tools. Nanotechnology By using new materials such as nanofertilizers, nanoherbicides, nanopesticides, etc., strengthens the soil and increases the growth of plants and with the help of new tools such as nano-sensors and intelligent delivery systems, identifies pathogenes in plants. For these reasons nanotechnology can be a promising way to increase the productivity of agricultural products.
