nanoparticles to avoid the nano-waste-related toxicity in
specific soil microorganism, plant, and long-term persistent
in soil. The risk assessment with a systematic study of their
production, acceptable limit, degradation, and multicentre
field trial should not be overlooked in foreseeable future.
Considering all the points, a more comprehensive in vivo,
in vitro study, elaborated ENPs interaction mechanism,
database modeling for their bioavailability, biomagnifications, on-field monitoring through highly sophisticated
techniques are the crucial points of care. Also, the strict
implementation of regulatory affairs regarding their production, application exposure, and disposal, identification of
exposure source, and fate pathways should be implemented
to overcome the challenges and risk of ENPs. Moreover, the
developing nano-era of ENPs has created a revolution in
sustainable agriculture; nonetheless, the hazards associated
with their continuous application cannot be ignored. Thus,
the knowledge of ENPs presented here could pave a way for
future research to minimize the detrimental impacts of ENPs
in the soil environment through designing sustainable, green,
and more efficient ENPs.
