The pesticides that are used to kill insects, rodents, fungi, weed, and diseases that cause damage to plants, crops, birds, and cattle, have hazardous impact on human health also. Currently, 139 types of chemical pesticides with scientific names and 2,576 types of chemical pesticides with trade names are sold in Nepal. Sixteen types of pesticides are banned in Nepal. Pesticides Registrar Bed Prasad Chaulagain told South Asia Check, “The import of pesticides is not as rampant as claimed by the media. Annual imports have been increasing by around 7-8 percent, which is not high.” The use of pesticides in Nepal is still low as compared to other countries.
