Agrochemical Management Combating the Challenges of Organic Farming

Abstract

Agrochemicals play a key role in increasing agricultural productivity by protecting crops from insects, pests, fungi, weed, rodents etc. Owing to their benefits, they have been used indiscriminately rising concerns over their usage. Nevertheless, they are indispensable in agriculture to maintain productivity as the population is exponentially increasing and so is the demand for food. Hence there is a need to employ a policy for the management of the agrochemicals to encourage their judicious use.
