Synopsis

Pesticides play a critical role in sustaining global agricultural productivity, yet their environmental and health impacts demand careful evaluation and responsible innovation. Pesticides - Balancing Efficient Pest Control with Environmental and Health Safety presents a comprehensive and forward-thinking examination of the scientific, ecological, and technological dimensions of modern pest control. This volume explores the challenges associated with conventional pesticide use, the risks to pollinators and aquatic ecosystems, and the urgent need for improved environmental risk assessment. It highlights promising advances such as biopesticides and RNA interference-based technologies, emphasizing precision, sustainability, and reduced ecological impact. By integrating environmental monitoring, toxicological perspectives, and emerging molecular tools, the book outlines practical pathways to greener, more efficient pest management strategies. Designed for researchers, environmental scientists, agronomists, policymakers, and graduate students, this work provides critical insights, identifies research gaps, and supports the development of innovative solutions that balance agricultural efficiency with environmental integrity and human health protection.
