This book presents the advancement of coating materials technology especially in agriculture
particularly for fertilizers. 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 fertilizer's 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.
