Early detection of pests and diseases of plant or animal
The pest and diease attack of plant or animal is detected after a heavy attack and great loss. But by nanotechnology this can be detected as it operates at the same scale as a virus or disease-infecting particle. . Nanotechnology holds out the possibility that treatment delivery systems could be activated much ahead of visible symptoms appear. For example, a smart treatment delivery system can be in the form of a miniature device implanted in an animal that samples saliva on a regular basis and detects fever before it develops. It goes with an integrated sensing, monitoring and controlling system which can detect the presence of disease, nutrient deficiency, or other health problem and notify the farmer and activate a targeted treatment delivery system. It can have the capacity to monitor the effects of the delivery of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, nutrients, food supplements, bioactive compounds, probiotics, chemicals, insecticides, fungicides, vaccinations, or water to people, animals, plants, insects, soils and the environment.
