If you have a home garden, and time to closely monitor your plants, there is no reason to use chemicals of any kind on your veggies. However, if you are a commercial producer, your income depends on producing as much perfect product that you can. To combat the slugs, bugs, caterpillars, fungi and other critters that enjoy eating the veggies, the farmer must use chemicals to reduce, if not eliminate, the plant and animal invaders of his crop.
