THE FUSE

Pesticide spraying is an essential practice in modern agriculture, helping farmers control pests, protect crops, and improve yields. However, improper application can lead to pesticide drift, which occurs when chemicals move from the target area to neighbouring fields, water sources, or residential areas. Drift can harm non-target plants, contaminate the environment, and pose health risks to humans and animals. Following safe and effective spraying practices is essential for protecting crops, the environment, and farmworkers.
