One of the primary issues is the sheer volume of plastic waste generated by these bags. According to estimates, millions of tons of plastic are produced each year for agricultural purposes, with a substantial portion made up of pesticide bags. When these bags are improperly disposed of, they contribute to the growing global plastic pollution crisis. Plastic bags often end up in landfills, where they can take hundreds of years to decompose. In aquatic environments, they pose a threat to marine life, causing entanglement, ingestion, and habitat disruption.
