MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202631043314 A) filed by Narula Institute Of Technology, Kolkata, West Bengal, on April 4, for 'nano-enabled integrated system for sustainable crop protection, controlled nutrient management, and ai-based precision disease diagnostics.'
Inventor(s) include Anurag Chakraborty; Ishita Biswas; Ankush Panda; Shubra Banik; Dr. Papri Ghosh; Dr. Md. Ashifuddin Mondal; Debrupa Pal; and Dr. Subhram Das.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a nano-enabled integrated agricultural system for sustainable crop protection and precision nutrient management. The system combines controlled-release nano-fertilizers, including nanourea and nanocalcium carbonate, with nanoparticle-based pathogen suppression agents such as silver and zinc oxide. Additionally, the invention incorporates nano-engineered seed coatings for drought resilience and carbon nanotube-based nanosensors integrated with convolutional neural network models for high-accuracy, AI-driven disease diagnostics. The integrated framework significantly enhances nutrient use efficiency, reduces agrochemical residues by approximately 40%, and achieves a 98% accuracy rate in early-stage disease detection. The invention supports environmentally sustainable and economically viable farming by optimizing plant health from germination through harvest."
