| Résumé: | Diseases such as 8ayoud and pests such as thc Red Palm Weevil are threatening the existence of the date palm. The Red Palm Weevil (RPW), Rhynchophorus ferrugincus Olive, is considered one of the major pests of the date palm in the Middle East where it causes severe damage. During a period of 5 years, the RPW affected trees in the UAE (as an example) jumped tram 1,300 (1990) to 44,000 (1995). The rate of infested trees in this country alone in 2000 was 3.2 percent and the buried trunks were more than 12,000. This pest infestation is annually doubling with a rate of 2.02 and constitutes a threat to the date industry in the whole date growing regions. Infestation by the RPW was first detected in UAE in 19R5. The infestation must have originated from the southern part of the Arabian Peninsula where the weevil was accidentally introduced in the mid eighties from Pakistan. A regional workshop on Date Palm Ecosystem based IPM for Date Palm in the Gulf countries was held in AI Ain during 28 - 30 March 2004, in collaboration between F AO, UNDP, UAE University and the UAE Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries. |
