Abstract

Pesticide use has increased dramatically during the last several decades, first in agriculture and then progressively spreading to other industries. Even though these techniques have been shown to boost agricultural productivity and lower insect populations, concerns over the possible effects on human health are emerging. The chance of acquiring cancer is increased when exposed to pesticides, as several studies have shown. Conversely, studies on the dangers of pesticides to human health have recently increased.
