Pesticides in agriculture

In modern agriculture, pesticides are generally used to protect crops against diseases and pests.

The global trend shows an increasing evolution in the use of pesticides to ensure food security and feed increasingly growing populations.

This increase in the use of pesticides also increases the risks associated with their handling. These risks are greater in Africa where we often deal with rural populations who are poorly informed, trained and aware of the dangers linked to the use of pesticides.

The misuse of pesticides can lead to numerous consequences on Sustainable Production, Farmer Health, Food Safety, and the Environment.
