Bio-pesticides :Its merits and demerits

by Sonika Pariyar | 27-03-2020 21:24 recommendations 0

What is bio-pesticide??

 

Bio-pesticide is a compound that kills organism by virtue of specific biological effects rather than as a border chemical poison. The rational behind replacing conventional pesticide with bio pesticide is that bio- pesticides are more likely to be selective and degradable(FOA,2015)

 

Why to use bio pesticides??

 

1. Human and environment safety.

2. Alternatives to conventional pesticides:

  14% of all known occupational injuries and 10% of fatal injuries are caused by pesticide (ILO,1996)

3. Amenable to small scale,local production in developing country.

4.  Address public awareness of environment and food safety.

 

 

Demerits of Bio- pesticide

 

1. Slow effect.

2. Variable efficiency.

3. High selectivity

4. Storage problem

5. Difficult of high scale production.

 

Examples of Bio pesticides:Bacillus thuringiensis, canola oil, baking soda
