I don't know about the link of pesticides and nitrates to cancer but they sure cause renal failure. Over where I live there's a area which has TONS of kidney failure patients all due to high amounts of pesticides, insecticides and nitrates used for farming in that area by greedy farmers. Also, the water over there is super polluted on top of being super salty.
