Chemical discharge into water has contaminated various locations globally, endangering humans and aquatic life. Industries, farms, wastewater treatment plants, and stormwater overflows release chemicals. The European Union has set pollutant concentration criteria in drinking, surface, and groundwater to reduce water pollution. To comply with these limits, analytical detection methods must be rapid, reliable, and able to identify even minute levels of chemicals. Agriculture uses pesticides to keep crops safe from illnesses, insects, and weeds. Few chemicals work, while the remainder sink into the soil and damage ground and surface water. Due to the growing emphasis on scene analytes over chromatographic approaches, new pesticide evaluation methods have been prioritized. This report summarises various electrochemical pesticide detection studies in a simple and targeted manner. This study examines the electrochemical detection of carbamates, organophosphorus, organochlorine, pyrethroids, and pyrethrins. Electrochemical diagnostic methods, electrode materials, electrolyte and pH of interesting samples, and sample matrices are examined. This paper will also discuss current advances in the respected study, analytical obstacles, and future opportunities. Many electrochemical investigations and analytical data are summarised in this article, which also describes the linear dynamic range of concentration and limit of detection for electrochemical pesticide sensing. This review discusses electrochemical pesticide sensing advances in the utilization of various nanomaterials.
