Excessive application of fertilizers negatively affects soil health, causes low nutrient utilization efficiency in plants, and leads to environmental pollution. The application of controlled-release fertilizer is gaining momentum to overcome this crisis. Engineered nanocomposites (ENCs) have shown tremendous promise for need-based delivery of agrochemicals (macro- and micronutrients, pesticides, and other agrochemicals). This review provides comprehensive coverage of synthesis of nanocomposites, their physical-chemical characterization, and techniques to achieve sustained release and targeted delivery to the crops, emphasizing their beneficial role in plant production and protection. Related aspects like feasibility of the application, commercialization of the nanoformulations, and biosafety concerns are also highlighted. This will be helpful to develop a critical understanding of the current state of the art in the controlled release of agrochemicals through nanocomposites. The pressing issues like scale up production, cost analyses, field-based trials, and environmental safety concerns should be given greater attention in future studies.
