About the team
Our team aims to use creative nanotechnology to promote sustainable food systems worldwide. We hope to improve both human and environmental health by using biodegradable nanocapsules to address major concerns in agriculture, such as excessive chemical use and plastic waste.
Our vision
Overuse of synthetic pesticides and non-biodegradable packaging materials in modern agriculture endangers both the environment and human health. -Pesticides are frequently overapplied, resulting in environmental damage, soil degradation, and health problems. -Plastic packaging adds to the global waste problem, particularly in food distribution and storage.
Our solution
The agricultural sector urgently needs long-term, innovative answers to these difficulties. Our project focuses on developing biodegradable nanocapsules for either: - Improve natural pesticide efficiency and sustainability. - Develop eco-friendly packaging to reduce agricultural waste. Through this innovation, we hope to promote sustainable farming techniques while avoiding negative environmental repercussions.
