With the continuous use of agriculture land for growing different types of crops the fertility of the soil reduce and the soil requires some additional nutrients agrochemical products for the growing of healthy food crops. Moreover agrochemical products such as insecticides and herbicides are also used for crop protection from harmful insects and germs. With the growing population, the demand for food crops is also increasing and for efficiently meeting the demand farmers have to constantly take the help of agrochemical products. Wide range of chemical products includes insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, synthetic fertilizers, and chemical growth agents. Agrochemical products are boon to the farmers, as with the use of these products farmers can increase the agricultural productivity that efficiently help to provide food for the ever growing population and also contribute toward eradicating poverty.



Modern World has greatly benefited from the wide use of agrochemical products to provide the global population with the required food and fiber. The wide usage of synthetic agrochemical products and their potential impacts have become a challenging issue in the field of agrochemical. To handle this issue, rather environment friendly approach is required for using the agrochemical products that are formulated from the natural means and methods. The use of natural agrochemical products do not have any adverse effects on the crops, environment or to the human life.

Agrochemical products provide an effective means towards meeting the challenge of more quantity of food to fulfill the food requirement of growing population. It is a fact that food crops have to compete with various species of weeds, plant eating insects and nematodes that destroy about 20 to 40% of food crops every year. This problem cannot be efficiently dealt without the use of crop protection products. We cannot ignore the importance of agrochemical products in the agricultural sector that helps to meet the food requirement of global population.

It is pertinent to note that safety of agrochemical products for consumer and environment is carefully regulated and only after a comprehensive safety assessment, a particular agrochemical product is allowed to be sold within a country. Each agrochemical product has a specific application that is clearly mentioned on its label for clearly stating its use to the consumers. Education and training programs are organized to convey the safe and proper use of the agrochemical products. Moreover recommended precautions that have to be adopted while using these products and the effective way of applying the agrochemical products are also taught to increase productivity and save input costs.
