Description

A recent study investigated the environmental impact of nano-encapsulated imidacloprid (nano-IMI) compared to the conventional pesticide imidacloprid. While nano-IMI reduces pesticide runoff and potential harm to freshwater ecosystems, its production carries a higher ecological risk due to energy-intensive processes. The research emphasizes the need for greener production methods to maximize the benefits of nanopesticides while minimizing their overall environmental footprint.
