Until the 1950s, it was common practice worldwide to use chemical substances on a massive and ever-increasing scale in the fight against pests because little was known about their negative impact on the environment. Climate change caused by greenhouse gases is also contributing to negative developments. Conventional agrochemicals with their extensive use of synthetic fertilisers and pesticides have come under increasing criticism since the 1980s and are seen as incompatible with sustainability and organic farming. However, a radical rejection of these practices is hardly realistic in the short term due to crop failures.
