Apr. 14, 2021

The effective ingredients of plant-derived insecticides are derived from plants, and have the advantages of being environmentally friendly, generally low in toxicity, and not easy to make pests resistant to pesticides in the control of crop pests. They are the pesticide varieties that should be preferred for the production of pollution-free agricultural products.
