Macro and Nanoplastics in Agriculture: Short Review

Smart nanomaterials technology 2025
Esperanza Huerta Lwanga

Summary

This review synthesizes research on micro and nanoplastic contamination in agricultural soils, examining how historical land management decisions have left lasting plastic pollution footprints. Understanding agricultural soil contamination is critical because these particles can disrupt soil health, enter the food chain through crops, and ultimately reach human consumers.

There is a big need to restitute the agricultural soils. Consequences of decisions taken in the past, have given fingerprints in the agricultural sites. Among those fingerprints are the micro and nanoplastics. In the last decades, investigations of the presence and...
