Despite the evident progress made in recent years, many challenges still exist in the agricultural sector due to the challenges of conventional agrochemicals, such as low bioavailability, photolysis, pollution due to harsh organic solvents, etc. The green revolution led to the endless use of fertilizers and pesticides, reducing soil biodiversity and enhancing pathogen resistance. In this context, nanotechnology has emerged as a possible way for the controlled and slow delivery of fertilizers and pesticides, as well as nano-enabled sensors for improving crops. Furthermore, using nanostructures as a generic carrier platform for agrochemicals could reduce the magnitude of the loss of conventional agrochemicals. It would be more efficient, cost-effective, non-toxic, and eco-friendly, leading to environmental sustainability. We will review the nano-enabled fertilizers and pesticides, their mechanism on leaf-targeted deposition …
