摘要

This study aims to evaluate the germination rate, yield, and growth efficiency of Solanum lycopersicum crops fertilized with a novel Musa acuminata peel extract-enriched nanofertilizer and to compare its effectiveness with a synthetic commercial nanofertilizer. The nanofertilizer was made from Musa acuminata peel extract through ultrasonication methods and optimized using factorial design. The optimized nanofertilizer F3, with a particle size of 39.6  ± 4.2 nm, demonstrated enhanced soil permeability and nutrient delivery. The synthesized nanofertilizer shows significantly higher germination efficiency (89.6 ± 4.4%) than synthetic fertilizer. The enhanced activity is attributed to the presence of a large amount of nutrients like potassium, calcium, sodium, iron, and magnesium, and the aminocid tryptophan. These findings highlight the potential of Musa acuminata nanofertilizer in crop improvement and showcase a sustainable, natural alternative with promising implications for agricultural productivity.
