Tridge summary

Egypt is the world leader in date production, with an annual output of 1.8 million tons from 15 million fruitful palm trees, as reported. The country is home to 22 million palm trees across nine governorates, with the Toshka area in Aswan Governorate hosting the largest date palm plantation. However, the industry faces challenges such as weak marketing, storage, and packaging, which hinder exports. The Palm Research Laboratory is playing a crucial role in improving production and combating pests, but the lack of incentives, limited local market opportunities, and insufficient investment for establishing refrigerated warehouses and advancing techniques are obstructing the sector's growth and sustainability.
