Abstract :

The utilization of pesticides has led to devastating outcomes for both the environment and human well-being. This article delves into the diverse adverse effects of pesticides, underscoring their indiscriminate characteristics that negatively affect not only pests but also beneficial organisms. The disruption of the ecological balance is evident in the diminishing populations of vital pollinators like bees and the pollution of water sources and soil. Moreover, the imminent health hazards for humans arising from food residues and exposure underscore the pressing necessity for the adoption of sustainable and conscientious agricultural practices.
