The ecological impact of pesticide use in agriculture is significant and often detrimental. Pesticides can lead to soil and water contamination, adversely affecting non-target organisms, including beneficial insects, birds, and aquatic life. These chemicals disrupt the balance of ecosystems by eliminating predators and pollinators, leading to decreased biodiversity. Moreover, pesticides can contribute to the development of resistant pest populations, resulting in a cycle that necessitates even more chemical intervention. Long-term reliance on pesticides can degrade soil health and threaten human and environmental health overall.
