The nano-enhanced EPNs resulted in improved efficiency of pest management, even by reducing application frequency, and aligns with the principles of eco-friendly and sustainable agriculture by reducing dependency on chemical insecticides and supporting integrated pest management (IPM) programs.
Nanotechnology in pest management systems has emerged as a promising tool for sustainable agriculture. However, its potential implications for non-target beneficial soil biota remain inadequately explored. This study evaluated the ecotoxicological impact and compatibility of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with the entomo...
