Preface
In the present scenario nanoscale devices have emerged with the capability to analyse associated plant diseases, nutrient deficiencies or any other ailments that affect food security in agroecosystems. It has been envisioned that smart delivery systems for agriculture can exhibit benign multifunctional characteristics to avoid habitat- imposed stresses for successful targeting. Nanoparticle-mediated smart delivery systems can examine the effects of delivery of nutrients or bioactive and/or pesticide molecules. It has been investigated that nanoparticles in plants might determine the nutritional status of plants and help in suitable curative measures upon induction in agroecosystems. To enhance soil and crop productivity, attempts have been made to make nano- fe
