This theoretical research paper examines the role of pesticides in changing the soil chemical properties of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) farms in the state of Maharashtra, India. While pesticides are widely used to protect crops from pests and diseases, their continuous application may influence soil nutrient dynamics, pH balance, organic matter content, and microbial activities. The ecological balance of agricultural soils is critical for sustainable production, especially in pulse crops such as chickpea which contribute significantly to food security and soil nitrogen balance. This theoretical review synthesizes existing literature and conceptual frameworks to understand how pesticide residues interact with soil chemistry, potentially affecting soil fertility and crop productivity.
