  2. Nanotechnology in agriculture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanotechnology_in_agriculture

    A different study found that zinc nanofertilizers enhanced photosynthesis rate in maize crops, measured through soluble carbohydrate concentration, likely as a result of the role of zinc in the photosynthesis process. [12] Much work needs to be done in the future to make nanofertilizers a consistent, viable alternative to conventional fertilizers.
