The smart combination of agriculture and other sciences can greatly reduce the limits of fertilizer use. Chitosan is a linear amino polysaccharide with a rigid structure which has hydrophilic and crystal properties. The formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds the presence of reactive groups and cross-linking, the formation of salts with organic and inorganic acids with complexing and chelating properties ionic conductivity, film formation are the characteristics of chitosan. With the presence of amino groups, chitosan can form a complex with other compounds and also enter the vascular system of plants and lead to the activation of metabolic-physiological pathways of plants. This polymeric compound can bond with other natural polymers and in combination with fertilizers and nutritional elements, on the one hand, it can provide the nutritional needs of the plant and on the other hand, it also helps to improve the soil texture. Chitosan nanomaterials as a Next-generation fertilizers act as plant immune system enhancers through slow, controlled, and targeted delivery of nutrients to plants. Chitosan can assist agricultural researchers and has become an ideal and effective option with its many applications in various fields.
农业与其他科学的巧妙结合可以大大减少肥料使用的局限性。壳聚糖是一种具有刚性结构的线性氨基多糖，具有亲水性和晶体特性。分子间氢键的形成、反应基团的存在和交联、与有机酸和无机酸形成盐的络合和螯合特性、离子电导率、成膜是壳聚糖的特点。由于存在氨基，壳聚糖可以与其他化合物形成复合物，也可以进入植物的血管系统，从而激活植物的代谢生理途径。这种聚合化合物可以与其他天然聚合物结合，与肥料和营养元素结合，一方面可以为植物提供营养需求，另一方面也有助于改善土壤质地。壳聚糖纳米材料作为下一代肥料，通过缓慢、可控和有针对性地向植物输送养分，充当植物免疫系统增强剂。壳聚糖可以帮助农业研究人员，并且由于其在各个领域的许多应用，已经成为一种理想且有效的选择。
