Harmful Health Effects Associated with Aerial Spraying

Více o knize

The paper discusses the escalating concerns regarding the widespread use of pesticides in agriculture, particularly focusing on aerial spraying methods. It highlights the non-selective nature of many pesticides, such as Naled, Resmethrin, and Malathion, which indiscriminately kill beneficial insects, aquatic life, and birds. The potential development of resistance genes in pests poses a significant threat to agricultural productivity, leading to increased economic costs for farmers. The paper emphasizes the urgent need to reconsider pesticide application practices to mitigate these adverse effects.
