New Nanotechnology Products Enhance Input Application Effectiveness
Nanotechnology may influence multiple industries such as energy, water treatment, health and medicine. In agriculture, nanotechnology may involve using tiny particles developed at an atomic or molecular level to more effectively deliver crop inputs, such as yield-enhancers and crop protection products, and improve productivity. Otherwise known as nanoparticles, these small particles in our case measure 50 nanometers to 100 nanometers. …

In early-planted soybean fields with cold and wet soils, seeding diseases like soybean sudden death syndrome (SDS) can have an economically significant eect on yields. In 2014, for example, our team found 20 percent yield losses attributed to SDS in some fields. Addressing SDS and its triggers early can minimize the disease’s impact. Primarily, SDS stems from the Fusarium virguliforme pathogen, …
