Eighth Bulletin: Power Crisis Endangers Al-Jufrah Date Palms
Date palms in the Al Jufrah municipality are facing the risk of thirst due to the electricity crisis which has caused a prolonged power outage. This has affected water pumping and the operation of the wells essential for irrigating the palms. Water is urgently needed during June and July to ensure fruit ripening and increase their size. The lack of irrigation leads to the drying out of the palms and the emergence of the "trimming" phenomenon, as temperatures rise to 49°C in the region. Farmers and engineers are calling on the government to provide electricity and water to protect the agricultural wealth and prevent a decline in date production.
