The role of pesticides is most significant among various agricultural inputs in boosting agricultural production and productivity. Since, pesticide acts as protective umbrella for other inputs. A crop is equally attacked by a number of pests which appear at different stages of growth of crop, but their virulence varies widely.

Timely and Judicious use of pesticides can save the crop from such disaster. Hence pesticides is a crucial input in enhancing agricultural output and controlling insect pests, provided if it is handled with almost care.
