The Significance Of Nanomaterials In Enhancing Soil Microbial Communitya Short Review
Main Article Content
Abstract
A severe threat to agricultural output and sustainability are global problems
including soil erosion, contaminants, and agricultural productivity loss
brought on by urbanization and agricultural expansion. Many technological
advancements are being used to improve the quality of contaminated soils
or purify contaminants in the soil, but they haven't been able to restore or
improve the condition of the soil to the desired levels because they are
expensive, impractical, or, to a lesser extent, require a lot of labour. Recent
developments in nanotechnology promise to raise crop yields and soil
quality indices while maintaining environmental sustainability. It has been
discovered that the existence of nanomaterials (NMs) within soils may
influence or enhance the efficiency of rhizosphere microbes or farming
crucial microbes, allowing the access of nutrients to crops and improving
the functioning of root systems as well as crop growth in general, creating
up an opportunity for the enhancement of soil health. It could be useful to
assess nanotechnology in order to learn more about the actual utilization of
NMs for enhancing soil health.
