The Director of the Desert Agriculture and Ecosystems Program at the Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research, Dr. Mohammed Al-Bouha, revealed a number of research projects carried out by the institute to develop the agricultural sector in the country using modern technologies instead of primitive and traditional farming methods.

With regard to pesticide use in Kuwait, he also pointed out the consequences of lenient policies and poor control of imported agricultural products facilitated the introduction and spread of agricultural pests that pose a threat to agricultural production, which led to a high rate of pesticide use.

According to an article on arabtimesonline.com, this puts Kuwait in second place with regard to highest pesticide use in the Middle East, as 21 percent of the Kuwaiti vegetables and fruits are contaminated with pesticides.
