Abstract:

Chitosan is a natural, safe, and cheap product of chitin deacetylation, which is widely used in industry production due to its own features. In this paper, the function and application of chitosan and its nanoparticles in seed treatment, soil remediation and increasing efficiency of fertilizer and pesticide synergy were reviewed. Chitosan can be used for seed treatment and soil amendment, promoting plant growth and inducing plant tolerance to abiotic and biological stresses. In recent years, chitosan has also been used to synthesize chitosan nanoparticles, as carriers of fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides and microelements, in order to achieve the purpose of reducing stockpiles and increasing efficiency, and promote the sustainable development of agriculture. Finally, future research directions of chitosan and its nanoparticles in agriculture were prospected.

Key words: chitosan, chitosan nanoparticles, agriculture, chemical fertilizer, pesticide
