“Soil Purification” Analysis of Pesticide Residues in the Soil
Abstract
Pesticides are chemicals that prevent insects, weeds, and fungi from damaging crops and are used by farmers to increase the number of crops they can produce. Governments test and regulate pesticides and product testing ensures that levels are low enough to not pose a threat to human health. However, many people worry about pesticides in their foods, so they resort to expensive organic foods.
In this research, we will learn about the types of pesticides. And whether its residues affect human health. And how can we clean the soil from it.
