Nano Urea: Basic Concepts

Abstract

Nano urea is a sustainable option for farmers towards smart agriculture. Nano urea are gaining importance in Indian agriculture in increase nutrient use efficiency, increasing crop yields, and reducing excessive use of synthetic fertilizers. The quantity of synthetic urea being applied by the farmers supply nitrogen to their crops can be successfully reduced to 50% by using nano urea. Required in small quantities compared to bulky nitrogenous fertilisers like urea, it is easy to store and transport. Farmers can easily carry bottles of nano urea over bulkier urea bags, which have a substantial influence on relative logistics and warehousing costs. This article will help to farmers and policy makers to understand about nano urea.
