For the solution of the problems arising due to the rapid growth of the population, where humans developed the expansion of agricultural land, chemical fertilizers, advanced varieties of seeds, agricultural implements and equipment, they have adverse effects on the ecosystem, such as human has cleared the forests and grasslands for the expansion of agricultural land, which has an adverse impact on the wildlife, the pastures and the marine ecosystem.

Similarly, using chemical fertilizers and pesticides for more production of food grains has not only made the land unfit for agriculture, but it also has done the work of polluting ground water due to chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Continuous use of ground water for irrigation has led to a decline in the level of ground water, due to which drinking water crisis has arisen in various regions such as Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, etc.
