pesticide-residues
Pesticide residues are the chemical traces that remain on or within plant tissues after pesticide application to crops, persisting through metabolic breakdown at varying rates depending on the compound and plant species. Understanding how residues accumulate, translocate, and degrade within plant systems is critical for ensuring food safety and informing regulatory standards such as maximum residue limits and pre-harvest intervals. Plant scientists study these dynamics to develop safer agrochemicals, improve application methods, and breed or engineer crop varieties with reduced residue retention.
