They are also widespread environmental chemicals found in food, water, air and soil. Everyone’s reproductive age is potentially vulnerable to pesticide related adverse health consequences. Pesticides exposure can interference with all developmental stages of reproductive function in adult males and females and have been associated with effect on menarche, infertility, menopause, male infertility like reduction of sperm motility and density. A story of suffering and tragedy in Kasaragod district with high incidence of reproductive disorder is due to pesticide endosulfan used in the cashew plantations. This paper provides guidance about how to prevent exposure to pesticides and incorporate organic farming. As the exposure has become unavoidable for our generation, this is the high time that we should take steps to reduce the use of pesticide so that we can give a healthy society to the next generation.
