Abstract

Nanotechnology is not new in science, but utilization of the nano-based solutions for the agriculture is advance and valuable step. Nanoparticles are now widely in use due to their extreme small size and stability. Nps are prepared through various methods such as chemical, thermal and green routes, but the most effective and eco-friendly method for the synthesis of these Nps is the biological method. Green synthesis of the nano-scale particles is the most effective and becoming favorite due non-toxic nature. Nanoparticles are commonly being in use in agriculture, due to their eco-friendly and non-toxic nature. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are being in use as pesticide, fertilizer and insecticide. Due to small size these particles are applicable as fungicide, pesticide and as fertilizer.
