In 2021, 9.6 million tonnes of dates were harvested around the world, with nearly 20% coming from Egypt alone.

There are dozens of date palm cultivated varieties (cultivars) worldwide, including Medjool which produces large, caramel tasting fruits, and Deglet Noor which produces fruits with a firmer texture and more delicate flavour. Plant description. The date palm grows about 30 metres tall. Its stem, formed of old leaf bases, is topped by a crown of leaves. These are long pointed shiny leaves that grow to about 5 metres long. Spikes of flowers grow from the point where the leaves join the stem. Male and female flowers grow on different plants and are wind pollinated, but in cultivation this tends to be done by hand. The fruit, known as the date, varies in shape, size and colour between varieties, although generally they are dark and oval shaped. More than 1,000 dates can grow on a single cluster.
