Abstrakt: Nanotechnology offers promising solutions for enhancing crop protection and improving yield in agriculture by reducing reliance on harmful pesticides. This study explores the efficient delivery of biopesticides and beneficial microorganisms using nanocarriers, such as nanoencapsulations, nanoemulsions, nanosuspensions, nanofilms and nanopowders. The integration of fuzzy mathematical approaches further enhances the potential of nanotechnology in agriculture. Fuzzy logic enables the optimization of nanocarrier formulations, controlled release mechanisms, and targeted delivery systems, offering precise and efficient solutions for crop management. Experimental methods encompass the selection and preparation of nanomaterials, formulation techniques and characterization methods, while incorporating fuzzy mathematical concepts for experimental design and analysis. The results demonstrate the enhanced efficacy and reduced environmental impact of nanocarriers, with fuzzy mathematical models aiding in data analysis and optimization. The implications of nanotechnology in agriculture include improved crop protection, reduced pesticide usage, minimized environmental impact, and enhanced yield, while regulatory considerations and safety assessments ensure responsible implementation. Integration with precision agriculture and smart farming technologies holds promise for resource optimization and crop management. Continued interdisciplinary research and collaboration are essential to fully harness the potential of nanotechnology in agriculture, shaping a sustainable future with increased efficiency, productivity and environmental stewardship.
