Before Harvest, Check the Spray Interval: A Safer Pesticide Guide

Learn how to follow the pre-harvest interval, protect your family and crop, and reduce pesticide residue before Kharif harvest.

As Kharif crops near harvest and Rabi sowing begins, a field may still show insects, disease or weeds. Spraying by guesswork at this stage can leave residue on produce and harm people, animals and beneficial insects.

The safest approach is to check the product label, wait for the correct interval and use non-chemical methods wherever possible.
