Pesticides are substances used to control pests, including herbicides, insecticides, nematicides, and fungicides. These chemicals or biological agents deter, incapacitate, kill, or discourage pests, increasing agricultural yields. However, their use has sparked intense debates about environmental sustainability and human health. As the global population continues to grow, the role of pesticides in ensuring food security while minimizing their negative impacts will remain a critical challenge.
