Explosion in population is a big threat. This has resulted in food scarcity. Rain deficiency has caused soil desertification. Smart materials based controlled release devices can solve the problem of desertification. Such materials can be used effectively for the sustained and controlled release of agrochemicals and can provide alternative to traditional chemical fertilizer treatment due to their ability to release the agrochemicals under controlled conditions. These materials can also conserve the moisture in the soil for a long period. They are of great importance in reducing the underground water pollution as well as soil pollution. Thus, such materials are of great importance from Farmer’s economy point of view and provide a better way to solve problems related with agricultural issues. The present work includes the fabrication of polymeric materials of natural origin for their applications in agricultural sectors.
