The Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences recently held an online seminar in collaboration with the UAE embassy in China, focusing on optimal date palm planting techniques in the UAE. The UAE Ambassador to China highlighted the strong agricultural science and technology cooperation between the UAE and China. The first batch of 100,000 date palm seedlings donated by the UAE to China has been planted in Wenchang, Hainan, with a 100% survival rate under scientific management. The Chinese Academy of Thermal Sciences aims to further cooperate with the UAE in areas such as date palm pest control and efficient cultivation. The cooperation includes the development of a high-efficiency regeneration technology system for date palm tissue culture, which was established in collaboration with Afghanistan in 2015, providing strong scientific research support for the date palm planting industry.
