Abstract
This chapter explores the intersection of green chemistry and the sustainable development goals (SDGs), emphasizing the critical role of sustainable practices in agriculture, particularly in the development and application of eco-friendly pesticides. As global agricultural demands increase, the reliance on conventional chemical pesticides poses significant environmental and health risks, necessitating a shift towards greener alternatives. The principles of green chemistry provide a framework for designing safer, more effective pesticides that minimize ecological impact while enhancing agricultural productivity. This work reviews recent advancements in green analytical techniques and biopesticides, highlighting their potential to reduce pesticide contamination and promote sustainable agricultural practices. By aligning agricultural innovation with the SDGs, this study advocates for an integrated approach to food security that prioritizes environmental health, social equity, and economic viability, ultimately contributing to a more sustainable future.
