Herbicides are used to destroy weeds in agriculture field while insecticides are used to kill insects in plants, in their common usage conditions. When both are mixed and used on crops, the whole crops may be died. there are more chances for that(above said)

What is the importance of research in research?
Agricultural research is critically important in that it is the only way to find out ways to combat new strains of fungi, bacteria, weeds, insects, and other pests that can destroy crops. It is also the only way to find new varieties of crops which we hope will yield better, be more disease resistant, and more drought-tolerant. Without agricultural research we have virtually no hope of feeding the expected nine billion people on the planet by 2050.
Why is the study of plant pathology?
A plant pathologist studies plant diseases and insect infestations on crops. Their work is relevant in understanding how and why various crops are attacked by insects and pests (fungi, bacteria and viruses) and how to minimise the economic effect (of attacks) on commercial crops by these pathogens. Pathology also encompasses the study of plant chemistry to ensure that crops (food as well ornamental) are well fertilised and are not deficient in nutrients. Poorly nourished crops are more susceptible to attack from insects, fungi and bacterial infections.

What is a pesticide does it destroy crops?
A pesticide is or may be a chemical substance or biological agent used against pests including insects, plant pathogens, weeds, mollusks, birds, mammals, fish, nematodes and microbes that compete with humans for food, destroy property, spread diseases, and are a real nuisance. Pesticides were first created either during or before 500 B.C.. The first known pesticide was sulfur. By the 15th century toxic chemicals such as arsenic, mercury, and lead were used on crops to kill pests. By the 17th century nicotine sulfate was extracted from tobacco leaves to be used as insecticides (a form of pesticide). In the 19th century two more natural pesticides, pyrethrum which is derived from chrysanthemums, and rotenone which is derived from the roots of tropical vegetables. Pesticides have a very big effect on the environment. They pollute the air, lakes, rivers, and streams in the United States. And yes it can destroy crops.
