In recent years, interest in natural products with herbicidal activity as new tools for integrated weed management has increased. The European Union is demanding a reduction the number of herbicides used, forbidding use most toxic ones, despite problem resistance increasing. Pelargonic acid (PA) only herbicide available Spain. this work, two field assays were performed compounds carvacrol (CAR), citral (CIT), eugenol (EUG), thymol (THY), p-cymene (P-CYM), (PA), and combination PA CIT—all except P-CYM formulated by Seipasa—to test their efficacy real conditions. They compared commercial PA, glyphosate (GLY) oxyfluorfen (OXY). both experiments, GLY achieved best control. Considering herbicides, Seipasa plus CIT effective. From some conclusions can be extracted better performance products: (1) on sensitive species, (2) treat weeds at earlier phenological stages, (3) find active doses conditions, (4) cover well when treating, (5) ensure adequate formulation products, (6) develop strategy correct application.

Herbicides are a group of substances used to control undesired vegetation in both agricultural and non-agricultural settings. They recorded as the most consumed class among other pesticides, reaching nearly two million tons worldwide. Despite their effectiveness weed control, extensive utilization herbicides has raised concerns regarding adverse effects on human health. However, comprehensive reviews addressing herbicide-related health risks remain limited. This work aims compile scientific evidence possible underlying mechanisms emphasize hazards that need be acknowledged, well explore novel strategies for minimizing impact Scientific data risks, including human-related non-human experimental research, were retrieved from databases such PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar. Pre-determined eligibility criteria applied select final studies. A narrative summary evidence-based incidence laboratory experiments is presented organize highlight key findings. indicates life-threatening nature herbicide exposure humans, ranging acute toxicity development chronic diseases at any stage life. Herbicidal chemicals can harm individuals through various pathways, especially by inducing oxidative stress or directly disrupting molecular cellular processes. some conflicting findings, effective mitigation urgently needed promote safer society protect well-being.

Abstract BACKGROUND Weeds are a menace in agriculture causing crop yield reductions to the tune of 40–50%. To overcome problems weeds, herbicides have been used excessively extent that they caused resistance addition environmental hazards. Nano‐herbicides intended exploit botanicals develop novel bio‐nano‐herbicide formulations. Bio‐nano herbicide was developed using Eucalyptus citriodora essential oil combined high‐energy approaches such as ultra‐sonication and high‐pressure homogenization. The formulation has hydrodynamic physical sizes 95.5 32.3–57.7 nm, respectively. product tested for their pre‐emergence post‐emergence herbicidal activity against Echinochloa crus‐galli.
