August drought risks Sidr nectar in Al Bahah
The scarcity of rainfall in August significantly affected the abundance of nectar from the date palms in the Al-Baha region, threatening honey production from the dates during September and October. This period is one of the most prominent natural products the area is known for. The weakened rainfall, combined with reduced flowering, diminishes the natural food sources for bees, leading to decreased honey production and limited availability in local markets, which in turn impacts prices. Local authorities emphasize the importance of monitoring weather conditions and adopting sustainable practices in beekeeping and conserving native plants to support the sustainability of the honey industry and preserve the region's agricultural heritage.
