A survey conducted on cotton and Bt cotton farming practices, with pesticide application: a case study
Journal Title: International Journal of engineering Research and Applications - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 10
Abstract
Agricultural produce has to increase to fulfill the necessity of the farmer and population demand due to this reason pesticide and fertilizers cane be used to increase the crop yield and agricultural produce. The excessive use of chemicals to control pest incidence, though increased yield levels within a short span, it has been the major contributor to environmental degradation as measured in terms of adverse effects on human health, soil and water quality, local biodiversity and ecological balance. Anyone who uses pesticides or is present when pesticides are sprayed is at risk for dangerous exposure. Present research focused and suggested. They are airborne thus they are found long distances from the site application. Exposure of wildlife over an extended period of time to pesticide levels not immediately lethal may result in chronic poisoning.
