The project ‘Israel-Palestine Authority-UAE-Egypt: Dates value chain development’ is targeted to improve postharvest control and post-harvest handling of date fruits to improve the intrinsic quality for the consumer. The project will generate information by bringing together date producers, shipping agents, whole food markets and food producers to improve date fruit quality to develop new opportunities for both local and international markets. The project will also identify options for quality standards and will give data on storage, health status and physiological conditions to enhance various consumer quality attributes. Information will also be used to suggest added value products based on date fruit components.
