environmental hazards from these fertilizers and pesticides it is anticipated that it is possible to foresee a decline in
the usage of fertilizers and pesticides in the forecast period. By over using the land for agricultural productivity, land
loses essential nutrients which are pivotal in the growth of a crop. This is the key driver for nitrogenous fertilizers
market increasing growth rate. The global crop output is diminished due to the pest attack and diseases caused by
