This book shows us how we can use the cutting-edge knowledge about agriculture, nanotechnology, and biotechnology to increase the agricultural productivity and shape a sustainable future in order to increase the social welfare in rural areas and preserve the environmental health. Specialists from several countries will provide their feedback on a range of relevant topics such as environment-friendly use of nanofertilisers, nanodevices, nano-food packaging, nanocoating and nanocarriers and their relationship with the modern agriculture. 606 $aAgricultural innovations 606 $aNanotechnology 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aPlant breeding 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aFood$xBiotechnology 606 $aEnvironmental law 606 $aEnvironmental policy 615 0$aAgricultural innovations 615 0$aNanotechnology 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aPlant breeding. 615 0$aBiotechnology. 615 0$aFood$xBiotechnology. 615 0$aEnvironmental law. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 676 $a338.1609410904 702 $aLópez-Valdez$b Fernando 702 $aFernández-Luqueño$b Fabián 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298403903321 996 $aAgricultural Nanobiotechnology$92519876 997 $aUNINA
