Iran meets up to 80% of domestic demand for pesticide, said Chairman of Pesticide and Fertilizer Importers Association Seyyed Mehdi Hosseini Yazdi, Mehr News Agency reported. Last year, Iran developed biodegradable and biocompatible nano-pesticides that can be used for pistachio, tobacco, citrus, cotton, ornamental plant, lettuce, cabbage and sugarbeet production without causing any environmental contamination.
