Algeria - Central Sahara: date cultivation systems
Date palms start producing viable yields for commercial harvest between 7 and 10 years. Mature date palms can produce 150–300 lb (70–140 kg) of dates per harvest season
Dates provide a wide range of essential nutrients, and are a very good source of dietary potassium
Dates are mentioned more than 50 times in the Bible and 20 times in the Qur'an. In Islamic culture, dates and yogurt or milk are traditionally the first foods consumed for Iftar after the sun has set during Ramadan (source from Wikipedia)
