The chemical burden on natural ecosystems has risen as the agriculture sector has become more industrialized. Pesticide usage in agriculture has grown further due to the rapidly expanding human population, which is expected to reach 8.5 billion by 2030, raising concerns about the impact of this population on food security. Agrochemicals known as pesticides are applied to agricultural fields, public health initiatives, and urban green places to protect people and plants from numerous diseases. In both advanced and developing countries, using various pesticides to eradicate weeds and pests is a crucial aspect of agricultural practice. There is no doubt that it has increased crop yields and reduced post-harvest losses. The remnant in food creates a widespread concern about the harmful impacts of these chemicals on mankind. Their side effects, however, can be a significant environmental health risk factor due to their proven capacity to have a wide range of detrimental health and environmental impacts. It is clear that pesticide exposure is highest among agricultural workers. Pesticides may pose the greatest risk of exposure to significant toxic amounts. This document is therefore structured to provide a comprehensive review of pesticides in relation to their types, distribution in the environment, and health effects.
