dc.description.abstractPesticides are chemical compounds used, in certain formulations and forms, to control plant disease, pests and weeds, as well as parasites on animals and hwnans. The damage caused by agricultural pests is enormous, amounting to as much as US $ 55-75 billion per year. Damage in countries with a highly developed agriculture ranges from 15 to 20%, while in developing countries it amounts to 3O-~ of the total crop value. Enormous quantities of pesticides are used worldwide to protect over 3,000 plant species from about 10,000 pest species. The largest quantities of pesticides are used to protect maize, rice, cotton and fruit orchards. An annual increase in pesticide consumption of l4~ is expected in the future.en_US
