Important steps taken by the Government of India on pesticides
Complete ban on pesticides: The Government of India has completely banned the manufacture, import, and use of certain pesticides in a directive issued on March 31, 2024. This includes more than 40 pesticides, including alachlor, endosulfan, and phoret. These pesticides have been considered dangerous to the environment and human health.
Permission to manufacture only for export: The use of some pesticides is banned in India, but they are allowed to be manufactured only for the purpose of export. Such as dichlorvos, phoret, and nicotine sulfate. Permission to use in special circumstances: There are some pesticides that can be used only under special circumstances, so that they cause less harm to health and the environment. Such as aluminum phosphide and captafol. Deregistration of pesticides: The government has deregistered certain pesticides, including 2,4,5-T and Azinphos methyl, making their use illegal in India. Protection of environment and health: These restrictions are aimed at promoting environmental protection and ensuring the safety of farmers as well as consumers.
