Abstract: Seed is the first element of agricultural production, and the seed of high quality is the basis of the sustainable development of agriculture. The application of nanotechnology in crop breeding, seed processing and treatment is reviewed. Nanotechnology is still in the early stage of development, and has great potential for development in the future. But there are also some uncertain risks. Choosing safe and reliable nanotechnology is of great significance for the development of seed industry.
