The conclusion is that the nanofertilizers can be beneficial for the future of agriculture, by enhancing the growth of plants, nutrient enhancement, and many other processes occurring in the plant, or they can be harmful to the plants in a sense, that they can cause toxicity in the plants, they can make the plant toxic by their action, or they can destruct the microbes present in the soil which is useful for the health of the plant such as they can cause the destruction of earthworm which are the microfauna of plants. Overall nanofertilizers can be beneficial for the field of agriculture.
