Use of pesticides has increased immensely in the past few years. Crops, garden plants and trees are being protected from the harmful effects of disease causing organisms; animals like poultry, farm cattle and pets are being protected from the attack of insects and pests. Apart from it, these are also being used in houses to prevent the spread of termites and other pests that destroy furniture.

Using pesticides is the most cost effective method of getting away from pests. A bag of pesticide product is capable of controlling pests in large cultivated areas. The cost incurred in employing labor is low, as less people are required for their application.

3.Convenient to use.
The application of pesticides helps to treat large areas of land to be treated rapidly and efficiently. Once a pesticide is sprayed on the crops, it kills all disease causing microorganisms and prevents the diseases from spreading. Use of pesticides has eliminated the hardships related to farming like removing weeds from the crops manually.

Studies have revealed that use of pesticides increases the crop growth by four times. This is because it prevents the plants and crops from being destroyed and prevents the spread of disease causing microorganisms.

Imagine a situation where most crops are destroyed by attack of fungi, weeds, and microorganisms. The rest of the available products will then be sold at a high price. Therefore, use of pesticides has helped to keep the prices of products in control.

In earlier days farmers and their families were completely engaged in farming and related tasks like removal of weeds, dead and destroyed plants etc. With the improvement of farming techniques and increased use of pesticides the output has increased and availability of time and resources have motivated them to pursue education and other prospects apart from farming.

  2. I believe it is beneficial to make sure you hire a licensed expert in pesticide application. As you indicated, when pesticides are sprayed on crops, they destroy all disease-causing bacteria and stop diseases from spreading. Since my cousin was interested in it for their farm, I’ll make sure to share this with her and check for help in acquiring SPCB certificates for her.
