The Insecticides Act, 1968

Pesticide is a vital input for increasing the crop production in Punjab. Approximately 6400 M.T.

(Technical) of Pesticides is consumed annually.

Efforts are being made to reduce the indiscriminate use of Insecticides on crops. The excessive use of

pesticides has caused the following problems:

i. Deterioration of Soil Health

ii. Water Pollution

iii. Air Pollution

iv. Degradation of quality of produce

To check the excessive use of pesticides the following steps are being taken:

a) the farmers are stressed upon to use only need based pesticides through various

means viz. farmers Training Camps, Seminar, Press, Radio and T.V. even

personal contacts.

b) Integrated pest management programme (IPM) is being implemented in the state

i. To maximize crop production with minimum cost

ii. To minimize environmental pollution due to pesticide

iii. To save the friendly insects.

iv. To maintain ecological equilibrium.

c) Use of eco-friendly pesticides (Neem based) are being popularized amongst

farmers.

Excessive use of chemicals causes increase in the concentration of chemicals in grains, fruits

and vegetables and even in fodder beyond the permissible limit which results in health hazards both for

human and animals.

fruits, vegetables and even fodder in the market immediately after spraying. There should be at least 8 to 10

days waiting period after spraying the chemicals.
