VARANASI: Nanotechnology has the potential to ensure sustainable rural development in the country, but unfortunately it is not being used on a larger scale, said Alain Reocreux, an agriculture expert from France, on the penultimate day of the three-day international conference on 'managing sustainable development of rural economy and agri-business', at Banaras Hindu University (BHU) on Saturday.
Reocreux also said that nanotechnology is being widely used in foreign countries for sustainable development in agriculture sector.
