Situation in Iraq• Agriculture extension services at the farmer level are weak.• There are probably as many registered pesticide dealers as
there are extension staff – and dealers have more regular contact with farmers.
• In addition to those supplied by reputable companies, there are many pesticides on the market that are sub-standard, fraudulent, re-labelled, smuggled, or expired.
• Government controls on registration, import, distribution and sales of pesticides are weak.
