Local Authority reports on 765 agricultural sample tests
The Libyan Ministry of Local Government announced the results of testing 765 agricultural product samples from three cities: Tripoli, Benghazi, and Misrata, to detect the presence of banned pesticides. The results showed that approximately 65.3% of the samples were contaminated with pesticides, and 44.7% of those samples exceeded the international permissible limits for pesticide residues. This reflects weak oversight and a lack of accountability in the agricultural pesticides sector. The ministry continues to carry out inspection campaigns and investigations to enhance food safety and protect citizens' health.
