The rapid increase in the world’s population has subsequently increased the demand for food supply. Farmers often lose their agricultural produce due to pathogenic infestations, poor soil conditions, water, and environmental factors. Scientists believe nanobiosensors can play a crucial role in revolutionizing the farming system by determining threats to prevent agricultural loss.

A new bendable supercapacitor made from graphene, which charges quickly and safely stores a record-high level of energy for use over a long period, has been developed and demonstrated by UCL and Chinese Academy of Sciences researchers.
