TY - JOUR AU - AB - This min review briefly describes chemical fertilizers and pesticides and their implications. It discusses the advantages of replacing pesticides with biopesticides and how deploying them can have great potential in bringing sustainability to global food production and feed security. The review also discusses how better protection of agricultural crops can be achieved by introducing modern techniques and developing novel strategies of plant protection.

Afo and Ushie recommended that the The use of chemical substances especially chemical pesticides use of appropriate and well-maintained spraying equipment along to enrich the soil for growing plants like vegetables and fruits has with handling pesticides with precautions can minimize human greatly affected the farmland ecosystem, degraded the quality exposure adverse effects on the environment [3]. of farmland and decreased the production. There is a great need Machiavelli and Khurana [4] added that great deal of efforts for an efficient eco-agriculture to tackle some hazardous effects focusing on the soil biological systems and the agro-ecosystem as associated with chemical agriculture. However, there is a debate a whole is required because of the great challenge of agriculture on whether organic agriculture can TI - Organic Fertilizers and Natural Pest Control versus Chemical Fertilizers and Pesticides JO - Current Investigations in Agriculture and Current Research DO - 10.32474/ciacr.2019.06.000232 DA - 2019-01-24 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/organic-fertilizers-and-natural-pest-control-versus-chemical-UgpalDelV8 DP - DeepDyve ER -
