Abstract
With the onset of industrial revolution and manufacture of various pesticides has no doubt enhanced yield in our agricultural products and also protect our majority of crops from the pests. As we cannot lose the majority of crops to these pests. Pesticides at present play an important role in enhancing the yield and provide an economical benefit to our farmers, but the use of pesticides in the agricultural fields is a major concern today. Increase in soil pollution has caused a serious concern. Large numbers of contaminants in which pesticide is one the major concern have pose a serious threat to human health as well as to the natural ecosystem. The available methods (physical or chemical) are either incomplete or costly. Bioremediation provides a novel tool or such process. Bioremediation provides an eco-friendly, economical and efficient method for detoxification of pesticides.
