Fertilizers are a critical component in meeting rising demands and ensuring global food security. A new generation of fertilizers made by coating granules with biopolymers address these issues. Coating in agriculture is an important area in research for a more sustainable future. Many examples and instances from existing research and related research gaps are discussed. It includes applications of composites as fertilizers coating, advantages and disadvantages of fertilizer coating from composites, applications of bacteria in composite, applications of bacteria in fertilizer industry as well as the common techniques of coating fertilizers with drying process. 001450500 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 31, 2022). 001450500 650_0 $$aFertilizers. 001450500 650_0 $$aCoatings. 001450500 650_0 $$aAgricultural biotechnology. 001450500 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001450500 7001_ $$aNg, Charles Wai Chun,$$eauthor. 001450500 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aTajarudin, Husnul Azan.$$tBiocoating for fertilizer industry.$$dSingapore : Springer Nature Singapore, 2022$$z9789811960345$$w(OCoLC)1346320571 001450500 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in applied sciences and technology. 001450500 852__ $$bebk 001450500 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-19-6035-2$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001450500 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1450500$$pGLOBAL_SET 001450500 980__ $$aBIB 001450500 980__ $$aEBOOK 001450500 982__ $$aEbook 001450500 983__ $$aOnline 001450500 994__ $$a92$$bISE
