IIT Mandi Researchers Develop Smart Biodegradable Microgels
Researchers at the IIT Mandi have developed smart biodegradable microgels to make agricultural practices more sustainable and minimize the adverse impact caused by the use of insecticides and agrochemicals.
The research has been published in the "Carbohydrate Polymers" journal.
Modern agriculture relies heavily on the application of various agrochemicals such as insecticides, herbicides, and fertilizers on crops to meet the demand for food for the growing population.
