One of the major goals of agriculture is to meet the increasing food demand of the growing population and as a result the use of pesticides enormously increases directly. Pesticides are chemical agents used to kill or control the growth of pests. Pesticides have their major role in agriculture on the other hand it also has negative impact on environment and non target organisms. They are classified on the basis of toxicity, target of pest, chemical composition, mode of action, mode of entry, etc. Most commonly they are classified as insecticides, herbicides, weedicides, and rodenticides. Diazinon is an organophosphorous pesticide majorly used in ornamental plants, lawns, fruits and vegetables to destroy pests and insects. Use of pesticides in agriculture results in higher yield, quality product and economic benefits to the farmers and consumers while uncontrolled use of pesticides leads to their bioaccumulation and magnification in the environment which pose hazardous effects to the human health.
