Abstract:

In recent years, the application of nanomaterial and nanotechnology on the field of agriculture has made some progress. This review  summarized the main progress of the applications of nanomaterials and nanotechnology in agriculture, including delivery of agricultural inputs, plant and animal breeding, agro-product processing, environment rehabilitation, nano-detection and other aspects. But at present, the application of nanotechnology in agriculture is still in its nascent stage. Some applications have been demonstrated at concept and experimental stage, and greater efforts are still required for commercialization. In addition, the characteristics of nanomaterials may cause potential safety problems due to the special nature, so it is very essential to choose environmental friendly nanomaterials and study their applications for the development of nanotechnology in agriculture.

Key words: nanotechnology, nanomaterial, agriculture, application, safety, environment friendly

摘要：

近几年纳米材料与技术在农业领域的应用取得了一定进展，综述了纳米材料与技术在农业投入品的传输、动植物遗传育种、农产品加工、农业环境改良和农业纳米检测技术等方面的应用。目前纳米技术在农业中的应用研究仍处于初期阶段，一些研究成果实现商业化还需要更大的努力。此外，纳米材料因其特性可能存在潜在的安全性问题，选择生物安全型、环境友好型纳米材料进行农业应用研究对于发展农业纳米技术至关重要。
