Current Scenario
Pesticides usage in India needs a fresh viewpoint from extremes of no or low use to mandatorily high usage.
The key is- advisory, awareness and adoption of modern agrochemicals with lots of precautions.
As per a study by Dr Ram Mnaohar Lohia Instt. of Medical Sciences,Lucknow(UP)-India, majority of farmers are not aware about toxicity of agrochemicals. Also, majority of them are not aware about protection of themslevs and their families from over exposure of these chemicals.
Dawabatao thanks all the scientists who carried out these studies from a health point of view.
