Plants
Plants are important to all people
and animals. Without them, we would
have nothing to eat. Farmers raise crops
by spraying fertilizers. Most farmers
now put chemicals on the plants they
grow. They use fertilizers, pesticides,
and herbicides on the plants grown
commercially.
 Fertilizers are chemicals that
provide nutrients that plants need
to make their own food. Pesticides
are chemicals that repel or kill
insects that harm the plants.
Herbicides are chemicals that kill
the weeds that grow with the
plants.
