Abstract

Pesticides are applied to increase production of agriculture. Expensive used contaminated of soil and water remain in the crops and finally enter to food chain. Pesticides used in agriculture are synthetic in origin and get absorbed in the soil through surface run off from treated plants. The residue of the pesticides pollute the ground water through leaching and its effect on the environment there are many types of pesticides on the basis of carbon molecules such as Herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, rodenticides, nematiciddes. Its a vital weapons of plants protection fish are under the exposed on pesticides the surface increased considerable with loss of coordination, laboured breathing increasable mucous secretion and suddenly twisting start swimming with head down position were noticed during long exposure.
