The present study discusses about present scenario of pesticide and fertilizer consumptions. The pesticideconsumption and fertilizer consumption were observed in tonnes. The data of fertilizer consumptionobserved from 1950 to 2018 and pesticide consumption observed from 1950 to 2018 years. The variablepesticide and fertilizer consumption observed every year. The consumption ranges of Urea 55.0-16,999.3tonnes, DAP 8.8-6854.4 tonnes and MOP 6.6-2779.7 tonnes were observed from 1955 to 2018 years. Theurea consumption of 16,959.3 tonnes, DAP of 6,978. 8 tonnes and MOP of 2,979.7 tonnes were observed in2017-18 years. The consumption ranges of pesticides from 2,353 -75,033 tonnes in 1955-2016 years and 213-217 metric tonnes in 2017-2019 years. The pesticide consumption of 75,033 tonnes was observed in 1990-91year followed by 217 metric tonnes was recorded in 2019-20 year. The sustainable applications ofagrochemical lead to decline of the soil health and crop yield. The application of agrochemical causesdestruction the micro flora and micro fauna of soil environment and imbalances in soil ecosystem. Thesustainable applications of agrochemicals promotes toxic soil, produces new microbes, pest, early falling ofcrop and human problems. The government should encourage organic farming applications instead ofagrochemicals applications for smart agriculture. |
