Agriculture: 12,000 Pesticide Permits Issued in Six Months
The report focused on the efforts of the Egyptian Ministry of Agriculture in developing the integrated system for agricultural pest control agents during the first half of 2026. The committee issued approximately 11,853 permits and approvals, including 2,406 authorization for imports and 2,340 customs releases, as well as the issuance of identification cards, biological evaluation certificates, and pesticide registration to enhance market oversight. More than 1,600 trainees working in the pesticide sector were qualified through 46 training programs across 19 governorates. Additionally, courses were organized for factory managers and experts to ensure the safe use of pesticides and improve the quality of agricultural production. The report also highlighted efforts to regulate the trading of domestic pesticides and license their factories, support the export of agricultural products according to international standards, and participate in efforts to localize the pesticide industry and transform Egypt into a regional hub serving Africa and the Middle East. This is being done in coordination with regulatory and research bodies to ensure environmental and health safety.
