The use of nanotechnology in the agricultural industry has paved the way for a clear future in shaping agricultural processes and increasing the accuracy of this work. Livestock products are one of the main sources of food used by humans and nanotechnology can play a major role in increasing the productivity or quality of these products. The application of new technologies, including nanotechnology, has been of interest to the industry for the production of machinery with a high technical quality and safety factor. Nanoparticles have been used on inner surfaces of household and industrial refrigerators to prevent microbial growth and to keep the refrigerator s interior clean and hygienic. The use of nanotechnology in agriculture involves Promoting productivity of various agricultural operations, Use of nanocapsules for controlled release of pesticides and the efficient management of pests, the use of nano sensors to track pests and countless others. Therefore, nanotechnology, as a powerful technology, has the potential to bring about improvements in the agricultural and food industries around the world.
