Main Body
Nano-technology works on the granular scale of a billionth of a meter (1 nano-meter). At such size, particles exhibit unique properties which can be tapped in Agriculture. Role of Nano-tech: A For Agricultural Productivity & Food security (1) High shelf life: A Flaw solair Tomato (2) Controlled Pest attacks: B use of nano-gels (3) Regulated use of fertilizers: B Nano urea liquid STOWL = 1 litre by (Indian fertilizer) (4) Nano-sensors: to be used to monitor bovine and cattle wealth (536 million animals = livestock census)
5Nano-particles: can be used to enhance soil quality and develop degraded soil. (6) Medicines and drugs of nanoscale to boost food fortification = Nano-biotechnology. Recent developments: (1) Nano Tech Mission has been brought (2) BIOTEN VISAN to provide adoption of technology in Favor. (3) Krishi Vikas Kendra: to boost technology absorption in farm sector. (4) Latest Complex: Nano-sensors, Nano-particles, Nano-Urea liquid, Nano-fertilizers.
