Date Palm Project
Start date

31 Dec 2018 Date palm has been deeply rooted in the Arabian Peninsula (AP) region's economy, history and culture since ancient times. The AP region produces 1.9 million tones, which represents 29% of the global production. The estimated area of date palm in AP is 365 thousand hectares, representing 33% of global acreage occupied by date palm. Date palm cultivation in the GCC countries has a long history, yet the research efforts extended for the development of this important crop are insufficient.
