Nanomaterials with unique properties are now being used to improve food and agri- cultural production. Research on nanomaterials is indeed revealing new applica- tions that were once thought to be imaginary. Specifically, applications lead to higher crop productivity with nanofertilizers, better packaging, longer food shelf life, and better sensing of aromas and contaminants. These applications are needed in particular in poor countries where food is scarce and the water quality bad. Nanotechnology also addresses the age-old issue of water polluted by industrial
