Nanomaterials-Microbial Interaction for Soil Health, Plant Growth and Performance explores the complex relationships between nanoparticles and soil ecosystems, emphasizing their influence on plant health and agricultural sustainability. The book delves into how nanomaterials, due to their unique physicochemical properties, can enhance crop growth and productivity while presenting both opportunities and challenges for future food systems. By investigating the interactions between nanoparticles, soil chemistry, and microbial communities, this work offers a balanced perspective on the promise and potential risks of nanotechnology in agriculture. Its comprehensive analysis provides a foundation for understanding safe and effective nanomaterial applications in sustainable farming.

With these core themes, the book serves as a valuable resource for researchers and students in diverse fields such as plant science, agricultural science, nanobiotechnology, microbiology, biotechnology, and nano-engineering. It advocates for an interdisciplinary approach, encouraging collaboration to maximize the benefits and minimize the risks associated with nanomaterial use. The text discusses regulatory considerations, environmental management strategies, and the need for ongoing research to address knowledge gaps.
