dc.description.abstractPesticides are large groups of chemical compounds including herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, nematicides, rodenticides, and plant growth regulators etc., commonly used for crop protection against pests. Indiscriminate utilization of pesticides could adversely impose the risk to food safety, the environment and the living population. Farmers are ignoring the risk associated with pesticides used, safety guidelines, and protective directives in crop management. The improper utilization of pesticides caused the degradation of the quality and fertility of the soil as well as disturbing the nutrient cycling, which leads to heavy metal deposition and toxicity. Excessive exposure of the pesticide to the insect population will be created the development of insect pest resistance, resurgence and decline of the population of the natural enemies. Disposal of unwanted pesticides waste is responsible for the pollution of the water reservoir, groundwater, and pond water sources. The bio-magnification of contaminant cause health associated risk in human beings and animal at different levels of the food chain. In this chapter, we are discussing in detail the risk associated with pesticide application and crop management. © 2022 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
