Health Concerns:

Residue in Herbal Products: Excessive use of herbicides and pesticides can result in the presence of residues in the final herbal products.
When consumed, these residues may have adverse effects on human health, including potential toxicity and allergenic reactions.
Development of Resistant Pests and Weeds: Over time, pests and weeds can develop resistance to herbicides and pesticides.
This can lead to a cycle of increased chemical application, as stronger or more toxic chemicals may be required to control these resistant populations.
