This poses a threat to human health and can cause long-term diseases such as cancer, as well as impact reproductive health. Excessive use also harms the soil, pollutes water resources, and negatively affects biodiversity by destroying beneficial organisms, degrading soil fertility, and contaminating water. Experts have called for adhering to recommended dosages, observing safety intervals, and increasing awareness about safe pesticide use. Additionally, they advocate for adopting sustainable alternatives such as biological control and organic farming to reduce health and environmental risks associated with these substances.
