Why are 27 pesticides banned by the Government of India?
Answers
Answer:
All these pesticides are highly effective. We export pesticides worth Rs 20,000 crore to several countries including the US and these 27 pesticides constitute 70% of it. We don’t think these are harmful enough to be banned,” said R D Shroff, chairman of Crop Care Federation of India (CCFI), a body of agrochemical companies.
R G Agarwal, chairman of Dhanuka Agritech said by banning these chemicals government will not be able to fight against the locust attack which is haunting border areas of Punjab and Rajasthan.
“It’s a death warrant for farmers. If these pesticides are banned crop losses would break the farmers’ back. Many of the banned pesticides are very effecting in fighting locust. The agriculture minister recently asked us to help in controlling locust. With these chemicals out of the shelves, how can farmers kill locusts and other deadly pests?” he said.
