Sales pitch by sellers and low cost relative to potential profit. I suspect that we will gradually move to include the increased environmental risk associated with maximising potential yield.
Various drivers are...
1. The world population is growing and dietary habits are changing
2.Demand for food, feed, fibres, fuels and feedstocks is growing
3.Intensification of the agri-food production system continues
4.Pesticides and fertilizers provide many benefits
Yes, Chemical fertilizers may have environment Effect. Excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides in agricultural fields mainly leads to the degradation of soil quality. Synthetic fertilizers and pesticides introduce very harmful compounds into the environment, contaminating soil, air, surface and underground water. The chemicals do not evaporate easily so they remain in the water system eventually precipitating out as mud in the rivers. Thus, pollution is created. Fertilizers are rich in nitrogen and phosphorus which are source of nutrient pollution. When it's raining chemicals in the fertilizers are flew into water.
But chemical fertilizers are our compulsion because growing population increasing demand. The Nano fertilizers, bio fertilizers are the solution for that but it will take time. We have to increase their production.
