Overapplication causes?

Explanation:
Overapplication means using more pesticide than the label or best practice calls for. That excess tends to harm the crop and waste resources: it can scorch or burn leaves, stress plants, and reduce vigor or yield, while the extra chemical doesn’t provide proportional extra pest control. It also creates more pesticide residues, increasing the risk of runoff, drift, and harm to non-target organisms, and it raises costs and disposal challenges. So the primary consequence is damage and waste. To prevent this, always follow label rates, calibrate application equipment, and use pest management strategies that target actual need rather than blanket overuse.
